===================================================================== 5th OMNeT++ Community Summit 2018

                CALL FOR HACKATHON CONTRIBUTIONS

     *****  Hackathon Proposals August 01st, 2018  *****

=====================================================================

The OMNeT++ Community Summit is an open meeting with time and space for tutorials, discussions, coding sessions as well as presentations on recent developments and novel ideas in the broad area of modeling and simulation, with a focus on the OMNeT++ simulation framework. The OMNeT++ summit unites users, developers, and researchers to discuss applications, developments, and ideas on the topics of integrating simulation models, coupling different simulation tools and providing more accurate and more efficient modeling approaches and simulation models.

This year's OMNeT++ Community Summit includes a “hackathon” for the first time in the history of OMNeT++-related events. The hackathon gives developers of simulation models and frameworks the opportunity to propose working topics and projects and to directly consult and team-up with the OMNeT++ core developer team at the hackathon.

Exemplary topics for hackathon projects could be:

• hands-on problem solving (e.g., improving scalability);
• introducing regression tests (i.e., fingerprint testing);
• set up continuous integration (e.g. Travis);
• add "project features" support if needed (for large projects);
• improving certain aspects of existing simulation models;
• add visualization (e.g., using figures, layers, 3D visualization);
• make use of INET features or porting to INET 4.0 in general;
• improving interoperability with other frameworks;
• discuss the practice of simulation result collection and analysis;
• discussion of interoperability and OMNeT++ development roadmaps.

The organizing team will select topics for the first hackathon based on prior written proposals.
