| Description | The aim of the DIET project is to develop a set of tools to build
computational servers. Huge problems can now be computed over the
Internet thanks to Grid Computing Environments like Globus or
Legion. Because most of current applications are numerical, the
use of libraries like BLAS, LAPACK, ScaLAPACK or PETSc is
mandatory. The integration of such libraries in high level
applications using languages like Fortran or C is far from being
easy. Moreover, the computational power and memory needs of such
applications may of course not be available on every
workstation. Thus, the RPC seems to be a good candidate to build
Problem Solving Environments on the Grid. Several tools following
this approach exist, like Netsolve, NINF, NEOS, or RCS. |
