''As a researcher, I feel that my research is freely accessible to a very small community of engineers. My contribution to an open source organization such as Octave on the other hand, will be available to anyone.''
''Participation in GSoC will not only help me be a part of an organization but also provide me the opportunity to be mentored by highly skilled and experienced professionals''


''Participation in GSoC will not only help me be a part of an organization but also provide me the opportunity to be mentored by highly skilled and experienced professionals. The learning curve from this experience will be huge as I will walk through the process of making a normal looking piece of code worthy of integration in a software and from my friends' experiences, it is an impressive achievement to add on the CV and opens a lot of career options :). ''

''It is an impressive achievement to add on the CV and opens a lot of career options. I have a friend whose career jump started with GSoC  :).''


** Please also describe your previous experience with the GSoC, if any.

''I am very familiar with the coding style as I use MATLAB for my research simulations.''
''My PhD research work involves math/optimization/statistics.''
 
''I have a foundation in the area to be able to immediately start contributing as seen by functions added in the Optim package recently.''
 
''quadprog in Optim package [http://sourceforge.net/p/octave/optim/ci/62934b60c7505ce43caba6d517fd185ef04babc2/] ''


''My research is quite mathematical in nature and which is why I believe that for implementing the missing algorithms, I can study the algorithms from research papers, understand them and translate them to Octave code.''
''lsqlin in Optim package [http://sourceforge.net/p/octave/optim/ci/bb42d6e052a1ba0bd417110b54897e7229de01a3/]''
