DIET Is A Software For

DIET is open-source middleware software that sits between operating systems and applications to enable grid-computing in a distributed computing environment. It was created in 2000 to provide high-performance computing and complies with the GridRPC standard, and is currently developed and maintained by research institutions in France to manage computational servers and resources across workstations, clusters, grids and clouds in a transparent manner.

DIET is a software for grid-computing.

As middleware, DIET sits between the operating


system (which handles the details of the hardware) and the application software (which deals with
the specific computational task at hand). DIET was created in 2000. [1] It was designed for high-
performance computing. It is currently developed by INRIA, cole Normale Suprieure de
Lyon, CNRS, Claude Bernard University Lyon 1, SysFera. It is open-source software released under
the CeCILL license.
Like NetSolve/GridSolve and Ninf, DIET is compliant with the GridRPC standard from the Open Grid
Forum.[2]
The aim of the DIET project is to develop a set of tools to build computational servers. The
distributed resources are managed in a transparent way through the middleware. It can work with
workstations, clusters, Grids and clouds.
DIET is used to manage the Dcrypthon Grid installed by IBM in six French universities (Bordeaux
1, Lille 1, Paris 6, ENS Lyon, Crihan in Rouen, Orsay).
