Hi Krishna, Welcome! As a starter, you may want to watch some of the SystemML videos on YouTube, such as those on the Spark Technology Center channel:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8-XGglzfn5fLvsQaxKrCuA/videos We have a 'Contributing to SystemML' page that contains some information that can also help you get started. http://apache.github.io/incubator-systemml/contributing-to-systemml.html If you find a particular area of SystemML that you are interested in contributing to (algorithms, APIs, core functionality, documentation, etc), please feel free to ask on this email list, and I'm sure someone with knowledge in that area can help you get started.
