Re: [hpx-users] Interest in Background Info
Hi Sonia, have you seen these two pages in our wiki [0,1]? They provide information about the proposal and a template what we expect of a proposal.

The coroutines like interface is not as easy as you might think, but the performance counter are definitely a nice project for somebody starting with HPX. > If you have any suggested readings, that would be much appreciated. > Otherwise, I can handle C++ and I have a strong statistics and probability > background. You probably have seen the code (https://github.com/STEllAR-GROUP/hpx), our docs (http://stellar-group.github.io/hpx/docs/html/), and perhaps our publications (http://stellar-group.org/publications/). Let us know if you need more information. > I will definitely submit an official proposal before the deadline.

[hpx-users] Interest in Background Info
Hi there! My name's Sonia Azad, I'm a junior at LSU doing Mathematics & Computer Science. I saw your blog post about the Google Summer of Code and am very interested. It is actually my first time hearing about this program. I just transferred from Carnegie Mellon, and would love to work on something in my hometown. This isn't a proposal though since I would just like to learn more background first. I've done a handful of hackathons and have always been interested and able to learn new aspects of programming on my own, but I have never done anything like this before. I want to stick to the easier topics such as the Coroutine-like interface and the arithmetic performance counters. If you have any suggested readings, that would be much appreciated. Otherwise, I can handle C++ and I have a strong statistics and probability background. I will definitely submit an official proposal before the deadline. If there is anything else necessary during the application process, please let me know. I look forward to hearing back from you!
