Hello all,

I find myself in the position of having to propose an inordinate number of student projects for our fourth year undergrads. I was wondering if there might be useful work that could be done on quanto? Ideally:

* something reasonably self-contained
* something on the Java side (they know Java, perhaps also Haskell, but certainly not ML)
* not too much maths

I did have a look at the bug tracker and nothing really jumped out. Do you have any ideas?

The front-end is in scala now, but I find students with a java background can generally pick it up in a couple of weeks.

Projects on the scala side:

* improving the dynamic graph layout --- I've run this project a couple of times before, but its the kind of thing that's never really "done", so its good for undergrad projects

* visualising/editing non-commutative generators --- Supports work of David and I to implement non-commutativity in the core. Also there are some interesting open UI questions to solve here.

Btw Aleks — thanks for this. I proposed the layout one. We’ll see if anyone bites.
