Hello,
I'm finishing my career in computer engineering. To finish that I've
to develop a new implementation of R*-tree. My teacher Prof. Dr.
Seeger, http://dbs.mathematik.uni-marburg.de/Home/People/Professor has
already one done, now he wants me to add it to PostgreSQL using Gist.

from where to start with. Could you please give me some kind of guide?
Some information is available on

We have also GiST programming tutorial (in Russian)
