[Bldg-sim] Twenty years of building simulation trends: Text mining and topic modeling of the BLDG-SIM email list archive

What were the dates of eQUEST and IES having their own lists? That would drive traffic down on bldg-sim specifically for those programs.

There is plenty of eQUEST traffic today.

I had no idea I was so high on the user list (no. 4), but who is this guy Nick Caton ?  joke, joke :-)

On a more sobering note, though, the number of occurrences for all simulation programs has gone way down, so that Open Studio and EnergyPlus are dominating over a shrinking pie.

Clayton,
I find it interesting that people separate eQuest from DOE2 given that eQuest is DOE2. I rarely complete a model without resorting to using DOE2.2 at the command line. In particular, I don’t like the way eQuest strips out my macro statements when it reads in the .inp file.

Hey BLDG-SIM friends!

To celebrate 20 years of bldg-sim email list, Jason Glazer, Matias Quintana and I thought it would be fun to do some text mining of the BLDG-SIM public email archive! We’ve submitted a full paper to the BS2019 IBPSA conference in Rome — email me if you’re interested in getting a sneak preview of the paper :).  And check out more building data science stuff at: http://www.budslab.org/

Thanks again to Jason for his unwavering maintenance of the list over the years!

Here are some highlights (3 out of 12 trend graphics) - simulation engine occurrences have morphed over time:

Questions about making baselines had its heyday, but have tapered off over the years:

Mentions of IBPSA have become dominant in recent years:

And of course, the rock star posters of the list:
