Hey Abhimanyu, It sounds like you've got a good grasp of the problem and the right skill set for this project.
It sounds to me like you've done plenty of research into the project, so my only suggestion would be to spend a little bit of time looking at HPX (documentation, examples, etc). If you haven't done so already, it might be good to take an hour or two and try building HPX and playing around with some of the examples. Given that this is an ambitious project, it might be helpful for you to send a proposed work plan to this mailing list before you submit so we can provide feedback. Overall, sounds good!
