Hi all,
I am about to start working on my Major Project for my final year Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science. So, I do not want to do some old project that would just give me a lot of experience and nice placement offers. I actually want to do something that, in addition to these [-o<, could prove useful to else out there, something that would benefit the community.
So, please provide me with suggestions for projects, that can practically be completed over a span of two semesters. Also, give me your opinions as to what programming languages to prefer and whether I should use fedora or ubuntu as the platform( I have heard that fedora is better for development purposes).
About my programming experience, I am pretty much comfortable with algorithms and programming in general. With respect to programming, I have had good exposure to c++ for algorithmic programming and i prefer using shell scripting for solving "real" practical problems. I am also familiar with java. As for web programming, I am comfortable with HTML, PHP and MySQL applications. I have also done basic linux kernel module programming and syscall implementations. I have never really programmed in python or perl, but am all for learning them if required.
I would also be grateful if anybody would like to guide me throughout the course of the project. I mean, I will personally do all the coding and stuff, while the guide(s) will keep me moving in the right direction and pull me out of any roadblocks that I might not be able to overcome.
In case you want to contact me personally, please send me a private message over ubuntuforums and I will contact you back with my mail id. I live in India and am usually available online from 0130 to 2000 Greenwich time.
Thanks in advance :)
