<div dir="ltr"><div>Hello everyone,</div><div><br></div>I introduce myself as Ashish Kumar, a sophomore from IIT (BHU) Varanasi (Indian Institute of Technology - Banaras Hindu University), India pursuing a B.Tech. degree majoring in Computer Science and Engineering. I go by the handle ‘krashish8’ on Github [1], and ‘ashishkr23438’ on all other online coding platforms.<br> <br>My project for GSoC 2020 is “Depth First Search and Sequential Vertex Coloring for pgRouting” [2]. I will be implementing the Boost Graph Algorithms - Undirected DFS, Depth First Search, and Sequential Vertex Coloring in pgRouting. Also, if time allows, then I would try to implement the Boost’s Maximum Adjacency Search algorithm too in pgRouting.<br> <br>Implementing these algorithms would be beneficial to the pgRouting community, as mentioned in the detailed proposal [3]. Also, the proposal further explains the algorithms in detail and their significance. Any feedback, suggestions, or comments from the community members on the project idea are welcome so that I can refine my project accordingly.<br> <br>I will be implementing these algorithms in a GitHub fork [4] of pgRouting’s GSoC-pgRouting’s repository [5] on my custom branch created and will be regularly updating the weekly reports on the project wiki [6], which will show my regular progress.<br> <br>Lastly, I would like to thank the OSGeo as well as the pgRouting community, for giving me this opportunity. No doubt, this will be an exciting experience, since this is my first GSoC participation. Also, I had contributed to open source in the past, but this would be the biggest open source project in which I would be actively contributing code.<br> <br>Thank you,<br>Ashish Kumar.<br> <br>[1] <a href="https://github.com/krashish8/">https://github.com/krashish8/</a><br>[2] <a href="https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/projects/#5537889326202880">https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/projects/#5537889326202880</a><br>[3] <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/16M1idfX_G8OkILx5KbPaEzGNn3AaD0Qo9yqjsF_Wz20/edit?usp=sharing">https://docs.google.com/document/d/16M1idfX_G8OkILx5KbPaEzGNn3AaD0Qo9yqjsF_Wz20/edit?usp=sharing</a><br>[4] <a href="https://github.com/krashish8/GSoC-pgRouting/">https://github.com/krashish8/GSoC-pgRouting/</a><br>[5] <a href="https://github.com/pgRouting/GSoC-pgRouting/">https://github.com/pgRouting/GSoC-pgRouting/</a><br>[6] <a href="https://github.com/pgRouting/pgrouting/wiki/GSoC-2020-Depth-First-Search-and-Sequential-Vertex-Coloring">https://github.com/pgRouting/pgrouting/wiki/GSoC-2020-Depth-First-Search-and-Sequential-Vertex-Coloring</a><br><img src="https://mail-info-ext.com/pixel/5A5XETJthRamSuS8gBXj?rid=5A5XETJthRamSuS8gBXj" width="1" height="1" border="0"></div>
