The Google Summer of Code (GSoC) is an international annual program, first held from May to August 2005,〔 in which Google awards stipends (of US$5,500, )〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/document/show/gsoc_program/google/gsoc2015/help_page#1._How_do_payments_work )〕 to all students who successfully complete a requested free and open-source software coding project during the summer. The program is open to students aged 18 or over – the closely related Google Code-In is intended for students under the age of 18. The event draws its name from the 1967 Summer of Love (of the 1960s counterculture), and the idea for the SoC came directly from Google's founders, Sergey Brin and Larry Page. From 2007 until 2009 Leslie Hawthorn, who has been involved in the project since 2006, was the program manager.〔( Guidelines for Google Summer of CodeTM Press Materials 2009 )〕 In 2010, Carol Smith took over management of the program. == Overview == The program invites students who meet their eligibility criteria to post applications that detail the software-coding project they wish to perform. These applications are then evaluated by the corresponding mentoring organization. Every participating organization must provide mentors for each of the project ideas received, if the organization is of the opinion that the project would benefit from them. The mentors then rank the applications and decide among themselves which proposals to accept. Google then decides how many projects each organization gets, and asks the organizations to mark at most that many projects accordingly. In the event of a single student being marked in more than one organization, Google mediates between all the involved organizations and decides who "gets" that student. The other mentoring organization then unmarks the student and marks a new proposal for acceptance, or gives their slot back to the pool, after which it is redistributed. Google has published the overall top 13 schools for the period 2005–2012.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Google Summer of Code 2012 Stats - Part 2 )〕 The list is as follows: 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Google Summer of Code」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
