Computer Science Final Year Topic: Design and Evaluation of Securely Sandboxed Expression Evaluator

This Computer Science final year project investigates evaluating restricted mathematical expressions without general code execution, with an explicit prototype scope and a reproducible evaluation plan.

Why choose this project topic?

The practical value of this topic lies in evaluating restricted mathematical expressions without general code execution. It gives a student a demonstrable computing problem, with invalid-input rejection, calculation error and resource bounds providing concrete evidence for a critical project discussion.

Can a small expression parser reject prohibited syntax while calculating valid expressions correctly?

Agree the available tools, workload size and evaluation criteria with your supervisor; adapt evaluating restricted mathematical expressions without general code execution to a clearly bounded institutional or laboratory setting.

Proposed project objectives

  1. 01Specify the requirements and assumptions for evaluating restricted mathematical expressions without general code execution.
  2. 02Implement a whitelist grammar without dynamic evaluation, fuzz tokens and nesting depth and compare valid numerical outputs with reference calculations.
  3. 03Evaluate invalid-input rejection, calculation error and resource bounds against a documented baseline and discuss failure cases.

A suggested research approach

Implement a whitelist grammar without dynamic evaluation, fuzz tokens and nesting depth and compare valid numerical outputs with reference calculations. Record the chosen implementation, dataset construction and repeatable test conditions before comparing invalid-input rejection, calculation error and resource bounds. Keep development and evaluation cases separate where possible, and retain failed cases in the analysis rather than reporting only successful demonstrations.

What you will need

  • Expression grammar
  • Generated adversarial test expressions
  • Reference numerical examples

Keep your project scope clear

The evaluator is a bounded educational prototype and requires independent review before exposure to untrusted public traffic. A project write-up does not supply a working application.
