Here's a selection of possible bachelor and master topics. If you're interested in one of them, don't hesitate to contact us! We'll sit down, have tea, and talk about what we could do together.

Bachelor Topics

• Control flow graph layout
  Connect the KIELER layout algorithms to an external tool for control flow graphs used in compiler development.
• SyncCharts and actor model visualization
  Develop an integrated viewer for SyncCharts and KAOM models using KLighD, including view management techniques such as focus & context and structure-based editing.
• Validation manager for models
  Develop an integrated, flexible and generic validation framework for models (e.g. Esterel or SyncCharts).
• Railway track layout
  Use KLighD to visualize railway tracks.
• Transformation from SyncCharts to Esterel
  Develop a transformation in Xtend2 to generate Esterel code for SyncCharts.
• Instruments for data visualization
  Develop visualizations of data values (e.g. through charts) and integrate them in the KIELER environment.

Master Topics

• Expression language and modularization
  Develop an expression language with a type system for SyncCharts. Implement modularization of SyncCharts models.
• FPGA Statecharts
  Development of a Statecharts editor, based on .NET, WPF, MS Silverlight. Synthesis onto FPGAs with a data-flow-based intermediate format.
• Quartz
  Integrate the synchronous Quartz language into KIELER for validation purposes and teaching.
• Esterel / SyncCharts Validation
  Automate the validation for a (generic) SyncCharts simulator employing the Esterel simulator and the Esterel to SyncCharts transformation.
