Hello everybody.

I would like to know if anybody has experience on using both EnergyPlus and
DOE.
Currently I'm using an interface for EnergyPlus. From the software
description I couldn't find out the main differences between EnergyPlus and
DOE. Does anyone know the main differences or where can I find them?
