Draft Project Suggestions List (former "open choice" projects)

Most suggestions cover more than one topic area, but they are listed below in groups according to one of their main fields. If the Identifying Code is 1xx, then one topic area is Intelligent Systems.
Similarly, 2xx = Computer Systems & Networks
3xx = Multimedia
4xx = Software Engineering
5xx = Databases / Information Systems
6xx = General Computer Science
7xx = Human Computer Interaction
8xx = Internet
Please look at other groups of suggestions too. You can adapt many of these suggestions to your own ideas.

Note: these ideas have not been updated to reflect the new format for project suggestions, so do not show the requirements for a third class grade. Completing the objectives / major tasks to a reasonable standard may well earn more than a third class grade.
