You can take a look the papers page
(<https://mercurylang.org/documentation/papers.html>), to see the kind
of projects that honours students at the University of Melbourne worked
on (those projects were a year long rather than 4 months though.)

When the Mercury team was based at the University of Melbourne, we also
offered student projects over summer that ran for a few months. Some of
these included:

* The Java backend (at least three such summer projects were
   devoted to various aspects of this.)
* Quickcheck style testing for Mercury
* A SOAP interface.
* An interpreter for Mercury bytecode.
* A pretty printer for the debugger.
* Mutual exlusivity and exhaustiveness declarations.
* Some work on the constraint based mode analyser.
* The argument tupling and untupling transformations.

(There were a bunch of others, but I don't remember what they were.)

Julien.
