This page is intended to help people choose a good topic for their OOD assignment. Before committing to a topic, talk to User:Warwick Irwin about its suitability.

Contents

Advice

As far as possible, choose a topic that:-

  • You're already involved with for another course, research project or work. You're more familiar with the requirements & design issues, and you get a double payoff.
  • You're interested in.
  • Is hard to design, e.g. because conflicting forces are involved.
  • Is not too broad, or has a smaller component you can concentrate on.

Some topic ideas

Topic Description
324 project Take your old 324 project and improve (part of) the design.
427 project Take an old 427 project and improve the design.
Better Java collections Improve the Java collections hierarchy, e.g. by adding `Bag`, `MultiMap`, etc.
Animation framework Design a set of classes to help programmers build custom 2D animations.
Wire-frame models Design a system to make wire-frame models of things like human faces. Allow them to be rotated, distorted, etc.
122 demo software Design software to demonstrate to students how a range of data structures and algorithms work.
Automatic GUI generation Devise a system to automatically make a user interface for domain objects. (See `BlueJ` & "naked objects".
