Hi Sourav
I gather you want to modify the cartoon plug-in in GIMP?

The plug-in porting task that you have mentioned in the subject is to
directly port GIMP plug-ins to GEGL ops. No modification of
functionality is necessary. It is described here:
http://gimp-wiki.who.ee/index.php?title=Hacking:GSoC_2011/Ideas#Porting_GIMP_plugins_to_GEGL_operations
It is not a task of porting only 1 plug-in, but about 6-10 plug-ins per
student. 1 plug-in is a very easy task and will not be sufficiently
long for a full summer's work.
To apply for this task, please present the items mentioned on the
linked wiki page.

However, if you wish to modify the cartoon plug-in, that sounds
interesting too. It can be a different task. Can you describe what is
lacking in the current approach in the GIMP plug-in? What is the
algorithm that you plan to use ? You say you are doing a project on
algorithmic art.. have you published anything on the methods you wish
to use in this cartoon plug-in? Are you using any other published
works?
Note that we _may_ accomodate more tasks if they are of a high quality
and we are satisfied with how the student presents it.

Thank you sir, for your comments, I'll come up with the presentation of those plug-ins mentioned in the wiki page and algorithm for the cartoonization plug-in soon.
And for the project on algorithmic art, I took this project in my current semester, I'll have to take the course Computer Graphics in my next semester to complete the project. So far I haven't yet publish any paper.
