A ring is called an FDI-ring if it has a decomposition of identity into a finite sum of pairwise orthogonal primitive idempotents. This notion generalizes right Artinian, right Noetherian, semiperfect and Goldie rings. The authors first present a survey of various finiteness conditions related to FDI-rings. Then they give a criterion for a semiprime FDI-ring to be prime, and discuss generalized matrix rings and an application to the decomposition of identity of the unit group. Finally, they consider the concept of a net of a ring, and show that the lattice of two-sided ideals of a right semidistibutive semiperfect ring is distributive.
