Name David Cabanillas Email davidcabanillas75 at gmail.com Project Title FreeSwap Benefits to the Freenet Community The proposal wants to assure that the nodes offer free space without either presence of altruistic participants nor general norms. Expected Results o Improve the data storage process assuring that the nodes offer free space to store information. The idea is not rely on altruistic nodes. My approach is to use a bartering mechanism at the moment to include new data in the system. When a node wants to add a content X in the system, it should accept store a content from the system. Apart from the advantage that apply a "quid pro quo" policy (i.e bartering) this approach avoid a massive stored content from malicious nodes.
Project Schedule - How long will the project take? When can you begin work? Do you have any other commitment for the summer? I expect to work during 3-4 months. The idea is to start the project on May and to finish on September. A short description about the scheduling: o In May review the architecture in special interest in how the data is added to the system o From Jun to August deploy the system o In September to test and review the performance of the system Right now, I'm in a period of time where I have not many tasks to do. This is good because I can read books and I may make many other things but the bad point is that the incoming funds have fallen :( Bio - Who are you? What makes you the best person to work on this project? I'm from Barcelona (Spain) during the last years have been doing my PhD. in artificial intelligence. I have experience in Java and some other languages. In the future I want to work as teacher in some University/school. When I have free-time I put on my trainers and I run during kilometers around my city. To me run is a way to escape. With respect the project I believe that this project is a good opportunity to me in many aspects: To work in a project very related with my academical and research work is good for my curriculum and it could be a personal experience. But the most important point is that I want to show me that I'm capable to work in an exciting project -- bye --david -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
