I have used Octave a little before and found it a useful math tool. The project on IBVP parabolic-elliptic offers me the perfect opportunity to combine my numerical analysis, fluid dynamics(PDE solving) and coding skills.

I | Octave community does a lot of numerical stuff that I'm interested in. I enjoy code development that centers around math and Octave offers me that. I like the openess and collaboration culture in open-source world. My only regret is waiting this long to get started. I will definitely continue to contribute irrespective of whether I get selected or not. | ||

I'd like to know the source code and community better by getting more involved in help-forums, IRC, etc. I wouldn't have my research commitments in May and that should help. I'd also like to discuss the frequency and means of communication with my mentor. I have set up a blog to put my weekly/fortnightly progress. Also, I think this project is more math-intensive than coding-intensive, so I could use this time to solidify the theory behind implementation well. <br> | I'd like to know the source code and community better by getting more involved in help-forums, IRC, etc. I wouldn't have my research commitments in May and that should help.

I don't have any exams or other commitments during GSoC period and the problem seems a good match for my skill set, so I expect to have no issues completing it in the time frame allotted. | I don't have any exams or other commitments during GSoC period and the problem seems a good match for my skill set, so I expect to have no issues completing it in the time frame allotted. | ||
