DIET (Distributed Interactive Engineering Toolbox) is a middleware designed for HPC (High Performance Computing) in heterogeneous and distributed environments (workstations, clusters, grids, clouds). DIET provides a standard-compliant implementation of OGF (Open Grid Forum) Grid RPC API. It works in a hierarchical fashion, clients requests computational resources to a hierarchy of agents which will choose the most adequate computational service (known as SeD or Server Daemon).

DIET is the core component of SysFera-DS HPC middleware (http://www.sysfera.com/SysFera-DS,10).

This package include agents necessary to run a DIET hierarchy.
