1.
Producer–Consumer Simulation (Multithreading + Synchronization)
Concepts: Threads, synchronized blocks, wait/notify
Description:
Implement a system where one thread produces data (e.g., integers, messages) and another
consumes it. Use a shared queue with synchronization to prevent race conditions.
2. Bank Transaction System (Synchronization + Exception Handling)
Concepts: Synchronized methods, custom exceptions
Description:
Simulate multiple threads transferring money between accounts. Use synchronization to
prevent inconsistent balances and throw custom exceptions for invalid transactions (e.g.,
insufficient funds).
3. Chat Message Logger (Serialization + Multithreading)
Concepts: Serialization, file I/O, threads
Description:
Build a simple chat simulation where multiple threads (representing users) send messages to a
shared log. Serialize chat logs to a file periodically.
4. Traffic Signal Controller (Multithreading + Synchronization + GUI)
Concepts: Threads, synchronization, Swing
Description:
Create a Swing-based GUI showing traffic lights at an intersection. Multiple threads represent
signals (red/yellow/green) that change in a synchronized manner to avoid collisions.
5. File Compression Tool (Multithreading + Exception Handling)
Concepts: Threads, exception handling
Description:
Develop a tool that compresses multiple files simultaneously using threads. Handle file access
and I/O exceptions gracefully.
6. Student Record Manager (Serialization + Exception Handling)
Concepts: Object serialization, custom exceptions
Description:
Allow users to add, view, and delete student records. Save records using object serialization and
handle exceptions like invalid data entry or file not found.
Extension: Add GUI form using Swing.
7. Countdown Timer with Alarm (Swing + Events + Threads)
Concepts: Swing, event handling, multithreading
Description:
Create a GUI timer where users set a countdown. A thread runs the timer and triggers an alarm
(sound/message) when time reaches zero.
8. Quiz Application with Timer (Swing + Events + Threads + Exception Handling)
Concepts: Swing, event handling, threads, exception handling
Description:
Develop a GUI-based quiz app. A thread runs a countdown for each question. If time runs out,
automatically move to the next question. Handle invalid input gracefully.
