<div dir="ltr"><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">Hi all,</span><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">My name in Rajul, and I am a final year undergraduate student at the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur. I wish to participate in Google Summer of Code 2014, and while going through the list of organisations, I came across "<b>strace</b>". I am proficient with programming languages C/C++, Python, Java, Groovy, Ruby. I am very interested in the fields of System Programming, Computer Organisation and Architecture and Operating Systems. </div>
<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">I have always been interested in programming and in the past I have participated in Google Summer of Code 2012, with the organisation Network Time Foundation,working on the project "improving the Logging/Debugging System of Network Time Protocol Software". I have also interned in the Global Technology division of Barclays, during the summers of 2013, working with the Market Risk IT team. Besides I have worked on a few Research projects in the fields of Computational Finance, Complex Networks, and Computational Chemistry. I am currently working on my Thesis project in the field of Computational Sciences on a project titled "Network Analysis of Chemical Reactions". I have had courses in the fields of Programming and Data Structures, Complex Networks, Distributed Systems, Algorithms, Operations Research in the past.</div>

Although I find all the projects listed worth a while, I am particularly interested in the "</font><b>Reliable multiarchitecture support</b><font face="arial, sans-serif" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">" and "</font><b>Advanced and improved absolute paths decoding</b><font face="arial, sans-serif" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">" projects.</font><font face="arial, sans-serif"> I suppose that my programming background is suitable for these projects.</font><br>
</div><div><br><font face="arial, sans-serif">I shall be grateful if anyone can help me and give me reference to the documentation that I may use to get myself started with the code-base and also shed some light on how I can go about making a successful proposal.</font><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">
