<p class="MsoNormal">Apart from offering a download link for the latest DAYSIM version, the new site also offers an interactive API documentation that describe all DAYSIM subprograms and
<a href="http://daysim.ning.com/page/daysim-header-file">header file keywords</a>. Focus users of the site are Daysim expert users who want to go beyond the capabilities of the various DAYSIM GUIs (see below) as well as third party GUI developers who want to
implement DAYSIM into their programs. The development of the site was supported by the
<a href="http://www.eebhub.org/about-eebhub">US Department of Energy Energy-Efficiency HUB</a>. (Thank you to all US tax payers among you.) The current DAYSIM development team includes MIT, the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems (ISE) and Penn State
University (PSU). With the new version come a few changes and new features.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><i>DAYSIM GUIs<o:p></o:p></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">Given the rising number of DAYSIM GUIs, we decided to phase out the old, rather unattractive JAVA GUI that came with the old Daysim and instead rely on third parties to develop plug-ins. In case you are still interested
in using the old GUI, you can still download Daysim 3.1e from the new web site. DAYSIM GUIs that I am aware are listed below. If your GUI is missing or if the table below misrepresents a software, please let me know.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">The shading module can be integrated with various electric lighting controls. Rick Mistrick (PSU) is currently expanding the list of supported controls. PSU is also working on a new DAYSIM program that allows to
explicitly model and control electric light sources using IES files. There will also be a module that supports the placement of photo sensors within a scene. We expect these new programs to make their way into DAYSIM later this year.<o:p></o:p></p>
