Or another topic of choice could be to make
some testing across Prolog systems, like
Dogelog Player, Trealla Prolog, Scryer Prolog

who knows what Prolog system. Scryer Prolog
is an especially curious Prolog system, it
even doesn't have garbage collection at all,

and you can let it crash by filling the memory
with garbage. I guess they don't know how
to read a paper, like for example this paper:

[3] Carlson, M. et al. (1988): Garbage collection for Prolog based on 
WAM. Communications of the ACM 31, 6, 719–740, June 1988
http://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/62959.62968

Which even has nice pictures, that help you
understand the issues and algorithmic suggestions.
