3 * **Control flow graph layout**
4 Connect the KIELER layout algorithms to an external tool for control flow graphs used in compiler development.
5 * **Node placement for layered graph layout**
6 Implement node placement algorithms such as the one of [[http:~~/~~/www.springerlink.com/content/j8b63vh3yatf17mk/ Brandes and Köpf>>url:http://www.springerlink.com/content/j8b63vh3yatf17mk/%20Brandes%20and%20K%C3%B6pf||shape="rect"]].
7 * **Dynamic SyncCharts visualization**
8 Develop a viewer for SyncCharts models using KLighD, including view management techniques such as focus & context.
9 * **Actor-oriented modeling**
10 Develop a viewer for KAOM models using KLighD, including custom rendering for [[http:~~/~~/ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/ Ptolemy>>url:http://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/%20Ptolemy||shape="rect"]]. Evaluate the [[http:~~/~~/www.eclipse.org/etrice/ eTrice>>url:http://www.eclipse.org/etrice/%20eTrice||shape="rect"]] project for possible cooperation.
11 * **Validation manager for models**
12 Develop an integrated, flexible and generic validation framework for models (e.g. Esterel or SyncCharts).
13 * **Railway track layout**
14 Use KLighD to visualize railway tracks.
15 * **Transformation from SyncCharts to Esterel**
16 Develop a transformation in Xtend2 to generate Esterel code for SyncCharts.
17 * **Connect CEC to Esterel editor for simulation** (in progress)

19 * **Instruments for data visualization**
20 Develop visualizations of data values (e.g. through charts) and integrate them in the KIELER environment.

24 * **Dynamic, adaptable views in KLighD**
25 Develop concepts such as focus & context and incremental update in the dynamic-views approach of KLighD, with SyncCharts, KAOM and possibly YAKINDU as example applications.
26 * **Expression language and modularization**
27 Develop an expression language with a type system for SyncCharts. Implement modularization of SyncCharts models.
28 * **FPGA Statecharts**
29 Development of a Statecharts editor, based on .NET, WPF, MS Silverlight. Synthesis onto FPGAs with a data-flow-based intermediate format.
30 * **Quartz**
31 Integrate the synchronous Quartz language into KIELER for validation purposes and teaching.
32 * **Esterel / SyncCharts Validation**
33 Automate the validation for a (generic) SyncCharts simulator employing the Esterel simulator and the Esterel to SyncCharts transformation.
