Software Engineering Final Year Topic: Investigation of Architecture Boundary Enforcement

This Software Engineering final year project investigates detecting prohibited dependencies in a modular teaching codebase, focusing on software lifecycle evidence, reproducible verification and the limits of the chosen engineering method.

Why choose this project topic?

The topic gives detecting prohibited dependencies in a modular teaching codebase a measurable software-engineering purpose beyond building another application. Comparing violation recall, false flags and explanation accuracy supports a defensible account of maintainability, testing or delivery trade-offs, with concrete examples of both useful findings and cases the method misses.

How do the selected software-engineering methods affect violation recall, false flags and explanation accuracy when detecting prohibited dependencies in a modular teaching codebase?

Choose an owned or permissively licensed teaching codebase, agree the controlled changes and validation plan, and narrow the evidence for detecting prohibited dependencies in a modular teaching codebase.

Proposed project objectives

  1. 01Define the software artifact, expected behaviour and evidence needed for detecting prohibited dependencies in a modular teaching codebase.
  2. 02Define an explicit layer policy, inject known violations and compare static checks with manual architecture review.
  3. 03Compare violation recall, false flags and explanation accuracy and document limitations and reproducibility.

A suggested research approach

Define an explicit layer policy, inject known violations and compare static checks with manual architecture review. Confirm repository licences and use owned or disposable environments for mutations. Record versions, fixtures and reference outcomes, compare violation recall, false flags and explanation accuracy with a documented baseline, and distinguish a passing bounded check from evidence about all possible software behaviour.

What you will need

  • Owned teaching codebase
  • Layer policy
  • Static analysis prototype

Keep your project scope clear

Dependency compliance does not prove good architecture or runtime correctness.
