Necati Batur commented on MAHOUT-332:
-------------------------------------

I am a senior student at computer engineering at iztech in turkey. My areas of inetrests are information management, OOP(Object Oriented Programming) and currently bioinformatics. I have been working with a Asistan Professor(Jens Allmer) in molecular biology genetics department for one year.Firstly, we worked on a protein database 2DB and we presented the project in HIBIT09 organization. The Project  was "Database management system independence by amending 2DB with a database access layer" (written in Java). Currently, I am working on another project (Kerb) as my senior project which is a general sqeuential task management system intend to reduce the errors and increase time saving in biological experiments. We will present this project in HIBIT2010 too.

I am confident to work with all new technologies.I took the data structures I , II courses at university so I am ok with data structures.Most importantly I am interested in databases.From my software engineering courses experience I know how to work on a project by iterative development and timelining. In order to add more functionalities I need a mentor to contact for this project.

> A student with a good proposal 
> - should be free to work for Mahout in the summer and should be thrilled to work in this area :)
> - should be able to program in Java and be comfortable with datastructures and algorithms
> - must explore SQL and NOSQL implementations, and design a framework with which data from them could be fetched and converted to mahout format or used directly as a matrix transparently
> - should have a plan to make it high performance with ample caching strategies or the ability to use it on a map/reduce job
> - should focus more on getting a working version than to implement all functionalities. So its recommended that you divide features into milestones
> - must have clear deadlines and pace it evenly across the span of 3 months.
> If you can do something extra it counts, but make sure the plan is reasonable within the specified time frame.
