Projekt DIOS byl zahájen v roce 2006 s primárním cílem posílit informovanost odborné veřejnosti, která souvisí s významem sledování intenzity dávky protinádorové chemoterapie. Dalším cílem bylo zpracovaní plně elektronické verze chemoterapeutických režimů tak, aby mohla paralelně doplňovat Zásady cytostatické léčby vydávané Českou onkologickou společností ČLS JEP. Hlavní výhodou je nejen snadná aktualizace, ale také možnost přímého využití pro praktické i výukové účely. Elektronické standardy lze rovněž použít jako vzor pro databáze nemocničních informačních systémů.

The DIOS project was launched in 2006 with the primary objective to enhance the oncologists' awareness of the significance of dose intensity monitoring in anticancer chemotherapy. Another objective was to develop a fully electronic version of chemotherapy regimens which could complement the Principles of Cytostatic Therapy in Malignant Tumours, published by the Czech Oncological Society of CMA JEP. The advantages of the electronic version include easy updates, as well as the possibility of direct use for clinical practice and/or educational purposes. The electronic standards can also be used as templates for hospital information system databases.
