    I think Geof is interested only in EnergyPlus building models, while
    yours are all in DOE-2.1E.  However, I do applaud your willingness
    to share publicly such work.<br>
    <br>
    As a secondary note, I do have a doe2ep program that can translate
    DOE-2.1E inputs to EnergyPlus 1.4.   Anyone interested can e-mail
    me.<br>

      Hi Bldg-sim community,
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>I am currently doing some work on EnergyPlus with the goal of
        speeding it up.  My background is in Computer Science.</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>I'm looking for realistic models that I can input to E+ to
        help me understand the areas that need improvement and to better
        focus my efforts.</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>Do any of you have any large scale / realistic inputs for
        EnergyPlus that I could use?  I will keep them confidential
        within the E+ development team.</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>Many thanks -- </div>
      <div><br>
