Interesting projects based on Distributed/Operating Systems

I would like to know some interesting challenges based on distributed systems that could be solved within the time frame of a quarter (my university follows quarter system!). I am hoping to work on a single project that would satisfy both an Operating Systems course as well as a Distributed Systems course so that I would have plenty of time to work on it (as I have taken both courses!). I am looking for a strong programming component. Could anybody point me in the right direction? I know Hadoop/map-reduce is the hot stuff but I would appreciate it if someone suggested solvable challenges in the field of virtual machines.

MIT has an OCW class, "Distributed Computer Systems Engineering," with a Projects Section which you might find helpful.

Check this blog entry on Mapreduce & Hadoop Algorithms in Academic Papers (5th update – Nov 2011). The problem areas in the blog entry could also be solved using non-MapReduce distributed algorithms also.

I suggest instead of going with the hype, pick a topic of your interest and work on it.
