Ahmia - Search engine for hidden websites on the Tor network
(Dignify)
Ahmia is open-source search engine software for Tor hidden service websites. It is available at
ahmia.fi. It indexes, searches and catalogs content published on Tor Hidden Services. Fur-
thermore, it is an environment to share meaningful statistics, insights and news about the
Tor network itself.
Tor is free software for enabling online anonymity and resisting censorship. It is designed to make
it possible for users to surf the Internet anonymously, so their activities and location cannot be discovered by government agencies, corporations, or anyone else.
The U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) has called Tor "the king of high-secure, low-latency internet anonymity", and it has been described as "perhaps the most effective means of defeating
the online surveillance efforts of intelligence agencies around the world".
Environment
This projects helps you to get experience with international open-source development, GitHub usage, web services, Tor software, people involved with Tor Project, cyber security research, online
anonymity and online privacy.
Technologies
The Ahmia web service is written using the Django web framework. As a result, the server-side
language is Python. On the client-side, most of the pages are plain HTML and CSS. There are
some pages that require JavaScript, but the search itself works without client-side JavaScript. JavaScript is used to the interactive visualizations of the data and statistics.
In practice, you need, at least, Python developing skills and basic knowledge about Linux environments.
Additional information
The project requirements are not fixed and you will have the possibility to affect the scope of your
work. We are offering you an opportunity to make the World a safer place by improving the usability of the Tor network.
The most important requirements are that you are interested in the Tor network, cyber security and
want to develop software that supports online privacy.

GofTV - Information radiator on our screens (Gofore)
Idea
We need information radiators in our lobbies and break rooms as well as online for travelling workers. We have a lot of data to present, and even more data we don't know we have but we want to
bring into light. We leave it up to you to come up with how this goal will be achieved, but we will
give you as much help and guidance as you need. Some common usages for information radiators
are customer satisfaction, personnel satisfaction, invoice rates, other economical data, lunch menus, foosball score boards, event calendars, etc. The sky is the limit and we will probably have new
ideas during the year, which is the reason for another requirement: easy maintenance and development after this course.
Environment
We leave the details up to you, such as the target platform and programming language, etc. We
would like to use information radiators in multiple locations and with different clients (TVs, mobile
phones, laptops...) You can also base your project on some open source information radiator application and implement our specific needs on top of it. Since some of the data could be considered
company secrets, the security of the application should be taken into account.
Language
Our everyday working language is Finnish and so the UIs should be also in Finnish. We offer you
help and guidance as much as needed and an agile customer for your project.

Forest Machine - Secondary Display (SeDi) (John Deere)
There is currently a one display user interface in JohnDeere forest machines where all the
machine and work status information is presented.
In the future there might be potential for an additional user interface (screen) where would
be shown some well-selected extra information. The visualised data will be defined during
project with project group.
Goal
The goal of project is to implement a platform
independent (secondary display) user interface for
demonstration and development purposes.
Environment
Implementation technologies can be selected by the
project team but HTML5 / Javascript is
recommended. Data for this UI is available through
the HTTP socket (machine PC WiFi connection) in
XML or JSON formats.
We do not have any special requirements for project
group skills, but naturally group would benefit from
having one or two usability (UX) students.
John Deere will offer excellent and prompt support for
project team, as we have experience of over 10 successfull project course projects. In
addition, we will offer a reward for a well-done project.

Smart card interface on an Android device (Intel)
About Intel Security
The Intel Security Group combines employees from McAfee and Intel - people with security expertise in
hardware, software, and solutions into one business unit focused on building hardware, software, services and end-to-end security solutions. Intel Security Group sets the stage for new levels of collaboration and innovation and will drive leadership in the industry by providing ubiquitous security and identity
protection for people and businesses worldwide.
Background and motivation
Smartcards have plentiful use cases already available on modern systems, eg. Väestörekisteri-keskus’
FINeID, banking applications etc. This may require the user to have a smart card reader in addition to
one or multiple smart cards to meet the needs of the services.
Modern mobile devices are pervasive, extremely capable of fulfilling a vast array of different use cases
and typically always carried on the person. The security hardware on these devices is extensible, allowing for development of new security services utilizing the Trusted Execution Environment (TEE).
These mobile devices with TEE capabilities are perfectly suited to fulfilling the same use cases as smart
cards. However, so far no implementation for this particular use for a TEE has been widely deployed.
The Project
The aim is to create a smart card interface on an Android device, which leverages Intel hardware security mechanisms to ensure a trusted solution. This interface will then be exposed over USB (and possibly Bluetooth) to a computer running Linux or Windows.
Android provides the necessary mechanisms for USB in the form of the Gadget Framework [1], which
allows reuse of existing components for communication. Additionally, Intel provides the light-weight and
easy-to-use TEE development environment Open-TEE [2], which allows for fast prototyping of TEEbased services. In addition to providing the Android devices needed for the development, Intel engineers will provide guidance as required.
The team is expected to follow a given coding style and utilize a revision control system (Git). The use
of code reviews, agile working model and static code analysis is highly encouraged.
Intel will assume the ownership and copyrights of all the intellectual property created throughout this
project. The team will be rewarded upon successful completion of the project.
Desired team competencies
Intel is an international company and as such, the working language is English. Therefore, all of the
code and documentation should be provided in English. The team should possess some amount of experience in the following domains: Linux, Android, C, Security, Git.
Learning outcomes
Upon working on project, the team will acquire valuable knowledge in at least the following domains:
Security (Trusted
Execution Environment, Open-TEE), Smart cards (PC/SC, PKCS#15), Gadget Framework, Intel Software Development Lifecycle.

Client application to check balance, connect with friends and
send/receive transactions (Wone Payments)
Wone Payments Oy is a Tampere based startup focused in mobile payments solutions. We are building
the next generation of mobile wallets allowing our users to transfer money from their phones in the easiest and most secure way. Using the latest cryptocurrency technology we want to be the avant-garde
mobile payments. In our first steps we are building person to person paymants and in the future expand
to merchant acceptance and business integration.
Problem to be solved, essential high-level requirements and expected outcome of the project
One important part of our project architecture is the client application that customers use
to check their balance, connect with their friends and send/receive transactions. This application
will connect to our servers API, send initial user registration, store wallet data in a secure way,
get balance, transaction history and create and send new transactions.
Target platform and other constraints, such as programming language, operating system
The selected team will work to create a cross-platform smartphone application with core
features. The team can choose to work on native applications (Android, IOS, Windows Phone)
or build once and deploy in several mobile operating system (ex. phonegap, react native, etc.)
details will be discussed during project start.
Language to be used in the communication and user interface of the created system
Product language will be English with the possibility to add additional languages in the
future. The user interface and user experience will follow modern and minimalistic looks. The
product initially targets young people but in the future anyone old enough and responsible to
handle money should be able to use with ease.
Assumtion towards the team: competences, language skills, special knowledge of technologies
Team members should be working proficient in English, have experience and knowledge
of JavaScript and mobile application development. Knowledge in data security and encryption is
highly valuable. Team members that already have knowledge on cryptocurrencies are highly
recommended to join us.
The ideal team would be composed of (assuming total of 5 people):
4 software developers
1 user experience / designer
Additional Information
The team will work closely with us to improve our services. This is a good opportunity for
us to identify talents to join us as part/full time developers.

Crowdsourced food photos (Culinar)
Background and the problem
Culinar Oy produces online ordering software and marketing services for restaurants all over the
world. The key feature in the online order software is the possibility to add photos to each item in
the restaurant’s menu. The problem is that most restaurants don’t have resources to take decent
photos of their meals. There are many reasons like menus changing too often, professional
photographers cost too much, restaurants don’t have the time etc. The pictures are one of best
way to promote restaurant food and a menu with pictures has much higher conversion (visit to
order) than a menu without pictures.
Expected outcome
A mobile app which works as an interface for the crowdsourced service where people can take
photos of meals they eat at restaurants and upload them to the service to be reviewed. The photo
should be able to be linked to a specific restaurant and even a meal. Third parties (like the
restaurants) should have access to the pictures. The team can freely design the core principles of
the service: What are the incentives to take the pictures, how the restaurants have access, how the
moderation works, etc.
Constraints
English should be the main language of the service. The team can communicate with Culinar Oy
using english or finnish. The app should be available on iOS and Android. Frameworks can be
native iOS (Objective-C) and Android (Java) or hybrids like ionicframework (Javascript, HTML).
Team
Must have competences:

Mobile (Android/iOS) or Web development (HTML,CSS,Javascript,AngularJS)

Back-End programming (Servers, RESTful API)
Bonus competences

UX (especially mobile)

Photography

Understanding of crowdsourcing

Frontend for Software Engineering Data Analysis Platform (TTY)
The department of pervasive computing is developing data analysis tool for analyzing software
engineering data and providing visualizations of the software engineering data produced
automatically by all different software development tools, such as JIRA, GIT, testing and
continuous integration software. The software aims to be a useful tool in managing large
software projects and creating value from already existing data. The project is done in
co-operation with large SW companies in Finland.
Problem to be solved
The project group would design and implement a frontend for software engineering data
analysis platform. The frontend would consist of wizard kind of data selection GUI where user
can select what data, stored by the platform, she would like to explore. The GUI also helps her
to select the analysis and visualization plugins (provided by the platform) to use for exploring the
data. The project group would also design and implement a dashboard template where the data
analysis results and visualizations for the selected data are shown. If the group is interested,
additional analysis and visualization plugins for the data analysis platform can be developed.
We are continuing development of the data analysis platform’s backend at the same time as the
project group develops the frontend. This is challenging but also educational as the project team
is truly part of development of a larger software entity.
Platform
The data analysis platform contains a backend which is implemented with NodeJS and has a
REST API for data queries. The frontend to be developed is a web application and it should be
implemented using modern web technologies.
Assumptions
We expect the project group to have UX experience, knowledge about web technologies
(NodeJS, MongoDB, assorted frontend libraries), JavaScript programming skills and
understanding of distributed systems. Knowledge on software architecture design (especially
web frontend architecture design) and on software engineering methods are appreciated.
Additional information
The work will be done for the Department of Pervasive Computing.

Personal media backup (Photostovis)
Problem to be solved:
A startup from Tampere (Photostovis Oy) is creating a home server that allows the members of a family to
put their pictures and videos together and see them from any connected device. The server sends the media
to the clients over the internet, using web standards.
One of the main problems to be solved in personal cloud computing is personal media backup. This is the
problem to be solved in this project.
Media backup can be done in several ways:


Qlma API (Solita)
Qlma is a new kind of communication platform for schools. It will help parents to communicate with
the teacher and the other way around. The project is licensed under the EUPL and it is published
on Github https://github.com/qlma
Project
The first step is to create a working API for the Qlma server. The server is made with Clojure and
the backend is PostgreSQL. We hope you stay with Clojure and PostgreSQL. There is a little bit
made on Github, but you can delete all that code and start from scratch.
The main goal is to create a secure API for communication. Messages can be sent and received
mainly from the web and mobile devices.
The second step can be (if you have time) the first client for the API. We will provide a layout for
the web page, but you can use any frontend technology you want.
We even have budget for virtual servers on Upcloud. You can create your own environment with
Ansible. We will setup Jira and Confluence for you before the project starts.
Skills needed to complete the project:

Passion

SQL

Git

Programming

HTTP protocol

Security

Testing
We think the most challengingpart will be authorization. You should support multiple authentication
methods:

Local users

SAML 2.0 users

OAuth2 (for mobile user)

MYRTLE - Visualization of Simulation Results (Microteam)
General
Microteam has developed a novel paradigm for rapid algorithm development on programmable logic chips (FPGAs and ASICSs) using the .NET framework and C#. The current implementation
needs better tools for visualization of the simulation results.
Goals
The project goal is to develop a way to visualize simulation results. The minimal requirement is a
control for representing a large number of events on a timeline. Also other ways to detect and display the desired events in the simulation data are needed.
Technology
The toolset has been implemented in C# using technologies like WPF and XAML. The toolbox
should work with both MS Visual Studio and SharpDevelop.
Challenges
The key challenge is to understand how to handle massive amounts of data: often hundreds of millions of data points or more and dozens or hundreds of signals of various types. There must be an
easy way to configure a “trigger” to find the interesting events in the data and to represent them
visually in a confined screen area.
The target user group has typically very limited programming skills and they may be beginners in
C# development. This puts an extra challenge on ease of use, relevant examples and good documentation.
If this does not sound challenging enough, features enabling multi-site use would be considered as
a bonus.
Competences needed
The group must have a good understanding of how to implement a library of controls so that they
are both maximally versatile (for simulating a very diverse set of applications) and easy to use for
beginner to intermediate programmers.
Basic knowledge of FPGA and ASIC design may help in understanding the problem.

GROB - UX and interface for controlling multi-axis robot
(Microteam)
General
Programmable logic controllers (PLC) are used for real time control of industrial automation devices such as roll grinders, XY-tables and robots. Currently the user interface for these PLC are created and developed case by case specific for the device being controlled, even though the data
being transferred between the user interface and the controller are in many cases similar in nature.
Goals
The project goal is to develop a user and communication interface for communication and control
of industrial automation devices. Currently the immediate need is for a user interface for controlling
a multi-axis robot using PLC and ISaGRAF control software environment. The team will have access to a PLC and a 6 axis miniature robot for this exercise.
Technology
The UI and communication interface implementation should run on Windows and Linux machines.
The UI can be browser based but this is not a requirement.
Challenges
The challenge is to find a way to enable easy development of user interfaces for industrial machines. The combining factor for these device is the PLC. How can the data be gathered and presented in a uniform way to enable faster time to market in UI development.
Competences needed
The group needs insight into UX development and interfaces. What is sought is a solution that enables as much reuse of UI and communication interface code as possible.

SQUINT - Robotic Vision Development (Microteam)
General
A machine vision product requires object tracking with 3D position measurement in video image.
Goals
The project goal is to develop a robust way to detect and track objects in a stereo video image.
Various algorithms for stereo vision exist and they should be used as a starting point. The goal is
to implement one or more algorithm in a robust way on the given platform. The system should be
able to classify and track a moderate number of user-defined targets.
Technology
The platform is a multi-core ARM Cortex-A9 processor running Linux. Some hardware acceleration
is available. Part of the task is to build the optimized Linux setup, preferably using the Yocto project. Use of ready-made machine vision libraries like the OpenCV is encouraged.
Challenges
The key challenge is to select the most robust methods and implement them so that the system
outputs not only the object tracks, but also quality metrics for the tracking. The objects may be not
visible all the time and their tracks can be extremely random.
Competences needed
The group must have good skills in building stable, high-performance applications on embedded
Linux. They should understand how to work with hardware interfaces and how to utilize the full performance of a multi-core processor. At least basic competence of DSP and pattern recognition is
required.

Working hours bookkeeping apps for mobile platforms (Solita)
Problem to be solved and essential high-level requirements, expected outcome of the project
Solita has developed to our public sector customer working hours bookkeeping system called
Turre that is integrated on state treasury´s Kieku finance and personnel administration system on
large-scale. Turre was launched at the start of 2015 and development is continuous. Turre is
browser based and can currently only be reached in our customers internal network. This doesn´t
enable mobile use. Solita is planning to expand Turre business case with native mobile applications.
Expected goal and outcome of the project is working mobile app(s) with mobile backend that integrates to current applications database and enables non-location-based use of working hours
bookkeeping.
Target platform and other constraints, such as programming language, operating system,
etc.
Target platforms are iOS, Android and perhaps Windows. Platforms shall be focused before project
start by Solita.
Turre is developed with stack Java (Spring Framework+jetty), PostgreSQL, QueryDSL, DBmaintain, AngularJS and jQuery. Browser UI is HTML5 and server OS is Linux. Application interfaces
are all REST.
As for mobile apps technologies shall be evaluated and choses later on but PostgreSQL will remain as master database. Application architecture needs to be designed.
Turre is developed with test driven development and it has high level of test automation for for application, UI and performance. Automated test are automatically driven during every build and performance tests are driven daily. We expect mobile apps to also have suitable level of test automation in every level. Manual testing should be focused on concept testing and usability, not on technical application features if those work. New versions of Turre are delivered with continuous integration principles with Jenkins as selected platform. CI and test comprehensive test automation is
explicit requirement for mobile apps.
Language to be used in the communication and user interface of the created system
Preferred communication language between Solita on project team is Finnish. Finnish is also application UI language but other language versions might be needed.
Assumption towards the team: competences (e.g., SW, UX, or security experience), language
skills, special knowledge of technologies, etc.
Competences needed would be in short

SW (backend+db)

UX (design&usability)

front-end (html, css, javascript)

devops/infra
Turre is developed with team of two full-stack-java-developers and one UX specialist
(html+css+javascript).

Automatic visualization of data warehouse for Solita Data
Science (Solita)
Project
The task is to create working prototype of graphical website for visualizing data from data warehouse. On the webpage user chooses visualization data such as fields and time constraints (control values). Code for visualization is generated based on user’s selections (control values) on the
page. For example we could visualize development of sales/costs for specific place of business on
a specific timeframe and product. The component which executes the data search will be given
ready to the project group. Implementation of the visualization component is the main task of the
project group. Project will be part of actual customer case of Solita. The result of the project will be
a functional prototype.
To be more precise, the purpose of the component is divided to 3 parts:

Data search. For example the results of the search are in json -format.

Implementation of visualization based on user’s selections (control values). Selections
should include:

-
Definition of data (filter timeframe, target products etc.)
-
Select style of visualization (line chart, bar chart or heat map etc.)
-
Assign data to visualization axes (define data to be shown at different axes: x, y,
color etc.)
-
Finishing of the layout (colors, styles, saving a style and reusability)
Publishing to external system in suitable form
Tools and platform:
Operating systems of the servers are Windows server / Centos 7. Programming language used in
project is Java EE 7. There are no other technical restrictions, but on the front end we highly recommend usage of AngularJS environment and D3.js libraries.
Competencies
Preferably the project group has skills especially on front end development. Also a general understanding on principles of databases would be needed even if the project group is not using databases. The communication language for the project is Finnish. The interfaces will be localized to
multiple languages in the future, but the prototype language can be either Finnish or English.

Apple Watch app to ease grocery shopping
We at Futurice want to be on the cutting edge of new technologies. We have done a few Apple Watch apps
and now we want to find something that can be used in an everyday context by anyone. The goal of this project is to create a fully functional Apple Watch app to ease grocery shopping. The app should have a smart
shopping list and utilize location-based services (eg. iBeacon) to create a smoother shopping experience.
What else? That is for us to specify together. The project is done in co-operation with Kesko.
The emphasis is on the front-end while we already have a functional back-end system to which the new app
will integrate (REST API). We want the team to be filled with eager doers - coders and preferably UX designer(s). We don’t want to give you strict restrictions. The team will be provided with equipment, such as Apple
Watches (2x) and iPhones (2x). You should have your own Mac for the actual development work. We can
provide also graphical assets, though we would like to see your design too. The preferred language for the
UI is Finnish.

Wapice IoT-Ticket 3D Visualization Mobile App (Android)
(Wapice)
Description:
Wapice IoT-Ticket is fully web based data acquisition, visualization and analytics platform.
Project idea is to implement Android mobile app which utilizes Wapice IoT-Ticket system
as a backend. Backend has open RestAPI for communication.
Main features in mobile app would be:
.
Read data from Android device sensors (GPS, acceleration, gyro, light, compass etc)
.
Extract data from images taken using device camera (e.g. With OpenCV)
.
Send data to IoT-Ticket system (via RestAPI)
.
Read extra data from IoT-Ticket system to mobile app (via RestAPI)
.
Visualize data in mobile app utilizing 3D models (e.g. WebGL)
.
Authentication utilizing IoT-Ticket backend services
Target is to enable interactive web and mobile app system where mobile app collects
some data, data is concentrated from server and visualization can utilize it all. At the same
time other user can use standard IoT-Ticket Dashboard functionalities and see same
things as mobile app user sees. IoT-Ticket Dashboard has 3D support already.
Basic technologies to be used in this project are quite mature, but of course fresh approach to the problem is expected.
To succeed, you need to understand web communication, UI-concepts and usability. You
are interested of bid data, data analysis and data visualization. In addition you are familiar
with Android, different web technologies (e.g. JavaScript, HTML5 and JSON) and Java.
