	~~=Welcome to Madagascar's Google Summer of Code Page=~~

	Madagascar, an open source project, is a leading participant in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_research Open Research movement]. As described on Wikipedia, the central theme of open research is to make clear accounts of the methodology, along with data and results extracted therefrom, freely available via the internet. This permits a massively distributed collaboration.		Madagascar, an open source project, is a leading participant in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_research Open Research movement].

	* Implement a hardware-adaptive transpose algorithm for a 1-node, SMP machine of 8 nodes or more. Investigate speed of transfers, size of caches, memory arrangement, etc, and make it hardware-adaptive. Bonus for out-of-core capabilities.		* Implement a hardware-adaptive transpose algorithm for a 1-node, SMP machine of 8 nodes or more.

	* Implement 3-D seismic data header storage using the fastest open-source database, then compare header I/O times with the classic approach of having a simple table. Which is the fastest way of implementing a large database knowing that the values it will hold are all bools, ints and floats?		* Implement 3-D seismic data header storage using the fastest open-source database, then compare header I/O times with the classic approach of having a simple table.
