Hi, My name is Bryan Carroll and I'm a M.S. student in the Applied Mathematics and Computer Science program at University of Central Oklahoma. I'm interested in the OpenMP and GDB debugger project.
A little bit about myself: I've been programming for about 6 years, the majority of those years in C++ or C. Last year I started learning about parallelization. I taught myself MPI and recently started learning OpenMP. I have some experience with compiling - I'm taking a Progamming Languages class right now. The final project is an assembler. I know how to debug programs. However, I don't really know much about how debuggers work. I also don't really know about how OpenMP works underneath the directives. I very much want to learn about these topics. I'm very much willing to learn and think I could be of help to this project. What I'd like to know and discuss: What other pre-requisites are there other than those listed on the GNU GSoC page? Also what would the goals and timeline look like? Thank you for your time, Bryan Carroll M.S. at University of Central Oklahoma
