Hello everyone,

I am Kolawole and I am interested in the tele health project.

I come from a part of the world that has accessibility issues such as Alaska that is being cited. I have a lot of passion for healthcare and excited to be a part of this project.

I have reviewed documents on L4S and I have a solid background with networks protocols(TCP, UDP, QUIC), scheduling algorithms (FIFO, Robin Round, Priority scheduling etc.), congestion control, traffic management and further advanced network related concepts, I also have a diploma in Computer Networks to prove that.

I am also familiar with Linux as an OS(Ubuntu and Kali Linux) and installing Linux servers.

I would like to be a part of the project and take part in the challenges that gives me to be a part of the project.

Thank you.

[kolawolecreates]

Thank you.

I would jump on that straight away and give updates as it comes.

[kolawolecreates]

Hello,

I have spent the past few weeks reviewing articles on L4S and I think I understand the principle. I have also done some practice with DICOM endpoints.

However, I am having difficulties with configuring two nodes and sending info between them. Am I to install multiple kernels on my Linux VM? Does the L4S have enough for me to install the node? Do I need physical layer devices?

[pradeeban]

Hi @kolawolecreates,
Nice to hear your updates.

The easier approach would be to have two linux machines in a local network. First confirm they could communicate locally over the Internet. Then, patch them with L4S/Linux distros.

So, you have L4S <--> L4S.

If you have 4 machines, it could be even better.

I am sure you could replicate the same with 4 VMs and a VM network. But showing anything realistic on network parameters, such as latency, on such virtual environment might be tricky.

I am of course aware that it is not like we have 2 - 4 computers lying around for us to patch them with L4S. But that will make an interesting and realistic observational study (rather than virtualization).

[kolawolecreates]

Errrm,

That makes more sense. No wonder I struggled.

I have just a Mac and a Windows. I use the Windows for Linux VM and scared to use the Mac for virtualisation because the M-series struggles with virtualisation.

Thinking of an alternative,

Would it work to setup let's say two VMs on Azure the free three and simulate from there?

[pradeeban]

Yes, Cloud VMs are a good option. We usually avoid those because they cost money (unless you have cloud credits or can use free tier for this).

[kolawolecreates]

Hello,

Thank you that is fine.

So the workflow would be to setup two linux VMs on Azure, install Linux kernel tree with L4S patches on both nodes and then try to send something from one to the other?

That should work for me?

[pradeeban]

wow, this is excellent progress, @kolawolecreates! Now, you should be able to verify the claims of low latency and scalable throughput through some of the sample data that you can find on the L4S website.

[kolawolecreates]

Hello @pradeeban

I have been observing and taking note of the claims of low latency and throughput. It is really cool. What next can I do?

[pradeeban]

@kolawolecreates: I think you could work on the proposal draft. Make sure to clearly identify your findings and progress so far (since the evaluation is global across the organization and your proposal should stand out for the entire organization).

Feel free to use a new GitHub discussion to draft your proposal, or draft it elsewhere and share it with me.

[kolawolecreates]

Hello @pradeeban , I tried to start a discussion and that didn't seem to catch your attention. Can I send my draft over e-mail?

[pradeeban]

Yes, pls. Traveling these days until tomorrow. So, I was slow on catching up some notifications. Make sure to submit your proposal on the GSoC site on time as well.

Hi everyone;

My name is Maurizio. I discovered your post on the GSOC website. I found your purpose of research, like healthcare and climate science interesting, that really impacted my country. I’m studying IT at the University of Bologna (UNIBO) and I have a passion for trekking and cycling.

I already have some skill in java and a little bit in python, but I have also seen other languages like C#, html, javascript, typescript, php. I’m now in the middle of my first degree and I’m really interested in discovering the world of open source projects, which is why I’m here.

I would like to be a part of the project. In particular I’m interested in project number [4]. I’m now looking at DICOM, Kheops and MEDIator. If anyone has any advice on what else to watch or do, it’ s welcome.

[Shimul-Baidya]

Hi there👋,

My name is Shimul Baidya, and I am a second-year Computer Science & Engineering student at Jahangirnagar University, Bangladesh. I am an enthusiast about open source and eager to become an active member of the community.

I am really interested in one of the projects, "Creating shareable 'albums' from locally stored DICOM images" as part of Google Summer of Code.

Why am I interested?
I want to be an active member of the open source community from now. And I would love to start my journey with GSoC as a contributor. I also aspire to be mentor in future. Also I appreciate the purpose of research that is being done by this community.

My qualifications:
I am quite comfortable with python and java programming language. I am also familiar with technologies like linux, C/C++.

Currently I am learning about DICOM, MEDlator, Kheops and other terminologies mentioned in the project. Help of any kind would really be appreciated to know about the project better.

Therefore, I am very interested to contribute to this project and collaborate with other members of the community. Hopefully, we will learn a lot of things together. Thank you.

Hi everyone!
I am Manvendra Singh Solanki from Cse Ai-Ml background and i am also interested in working in this project , I know python , java , HTML , CSS . I can adapt very fast and have great learning capacity but these thing are common what i think i have different in me is that i want to learn from thoes who are better than me and catch up to them and even beat them and always keep learning.

[EbrahemMordy]

Hi everyone!

I am Ebrahem Mordy from Egypt, I am a final year CS student and also a competitive programmer and a region finalist in the Arab And African regions. I am also an Expert in codeforces profile and now I am trying to be SWE, especially a java backend dev using spring boot

I aim to enter gsoc this year and make it my year and when checking organizations find this one and I liked this project (Creating shareable "albums" from locally stored DICOM images) I see it's okay for me as I can use Java so I want to know if there is any knowledge I must learn to understand this project and the final output for it, also if there is any issue I can check and solve to start contributing in this organization.
