Topics for Projects on FPGA+Computer Archtecture

Hi,

 I have to work on a project related to FPGA (Altera DEI or Altera DEII) and computer architecture. Can anyone suggest good topics that I can work on individually (say for 3-4 months).
Thank you in advance.

TTA is one possibility, a random topic that I happen to know about.

A lot of work has been done already and is available. You can download a
full implementation with LLVM compiler here:

I've done a quick place & route on all the soft processor cores I can find:
http://opencores.org/project,up_core_list,summary

Would like to have better metrics re comparative performance.
In particular a simple, e.g. easily implemented in assembler, CoreMark type metric.  It should be straight forward to select some subset of cores and then perform the measurements and analysis.  

Thank you both of you.
I just wanted to know if these are graduate level projects that you suggested? And if you can suggest some more similar topics. In the meanwhile I am going through the links that you shared.
Thank you in advance .

Please take a look at:
"This project implements the lower layers of a standard TCP/IP stack based
on a free code from University of Queensland: IP stack
My first steps to understand the project, after reading the documents
are:..."

Another one may be:
" This project implements an IP TTL filter in hardware. If an IPV4 packet
is identified, the machine checks its TTL field. Based on previous values
of TTL data collected and analyzed from former packets, the machine decides
if the packet is spoofed or not...."
