This part is one of the more important ones in your application. You are allowed to be as verbose as you want, as long as you stay on topic ;-)
This part is one of the more important ones in your application. You are allowed to be as verbose as you want, as long as you stay on topic ;-)
* Please describe your experience with C++, Octave or Matlab m-scripts, OpenGL and Qt.
* I've a good experience with C++ and Octave because I've used them a lot at university, for many exams.
* Please describe your experience with other programming languages.
* I've a good experience with Fortran, OpenMP, MPI and CUDA.
* Please describe your experience with being in a development team. ''Do you have experience working with open source or free projects?''
* I've worked together with 4 other students for an exam at university. We had to work for 3 different days on a project, for 5 hours per day and each time we had to complete a different project, usually on data structures and Algebric algorithms such as matrices decomposition.
* Please describe the biggest project you have written code for and what you learned by doing so. Also describe your role in that project over time.
* The biggest code I've written was for my thesis. I took an exsisting code written in Fortran that was useful to simulate the Brownout effect and I modified this code to make it working in parallel on 2 GPUs NVIDIA Tesla 2070M-Q using CUDA for Fortran.
* Please state the commits and patches you already contributed to Octave. ''This question (one of the most important parts by the way) is the only part of your application our wiki admins will edit for you even after the application deadline. Code sometimes speaks louder than many words do.''
* I've not yet contributed to Octave but I've written in Octave a class of solutors for classical Hamiltonian mechanics systems which makes use of Spectral Variational Integrators.

* What will make you actively stay in our community after this GSoC is over? ''You can also tell us after applications close and we'll happily try to fulfill :-)''
* What will make you actively stay in our community after this GSoC is over? Work on other applications close or not to what I've already done.
