THE
PROTOTYPING
MODEL
 This model suggests building a
working prototype of the system,
before development of the actual
software.

 A prototype is a toy and crude


implementation of a system. It has
limited functional capabilities,
low reliability, or inefficient
performance as compared to the
actual software.

Dr. Saumil Maheshwari


The prototype may be a usable program but is
not suitable as the final software product.

THE The code for the prototype is thrown away.


However experience gathered helps in
PROTOTYPIN developing the actual system.

G MODEL
The development of a prototype might involve
extra cost, but overall cost might turnout to be
lower than that of an equivalent system
developed using the waterfall model.

THE PROTOTYPING MODEL
 A prototype of the actual product is preferred in situations such as:

 user requirements are not complete

 technical issues are not clear

Dr. Saumil Maheshwari


Types of Prototyping Model:

• Rapid Throwaway prototypes


• Evolutionary prototype
• Incremental prototype
• Extreme prototype

Dr. Saumil Maheshwari


Rapid Throwaway prototypes
 It is quickly developed to show how the need will appear visually. Customer feedback aids in
the movement of demand change, and the prototype is re-created until the need is basic. As a
result, the upgraded version is rejected and cannot be the last accepted type.

Dr. Saumil Maheshwari


Evolutionary Prototyping
 It assists you in avoiding both time and effort waste. This is due to the fact that performing a
specific type from the start of each method of communication can be time-consuming. This
model is useful for a project that involves the use of an unknown replacement technology. It is
also used in high-end projects where each feature must be tested only once. It’s useful when
the need isn’t stable or isn’t clearly understood at the start.

Dr. Saumil Maheshwari


Incremental Prototyping
 The final product is decimated into small prototypes and developed individually in incremental
prototyping. The various prototypes are eventually combined into a single product. This method
is useful for reducing feedback time between the user and, consequently, the application
development team.

Dr. Saumil Maheshwari


Extreme Prototyping
 The extreme prototyping method is commonly used in web development. It is divided into
three stages that must be completed in order.
 The HTML format contains a basic prototype of the current page.
 A prototype services layer will allow you to simulate data processes.
 The services are built and integrated into the final prototype

Dr. Saumil Maheshwari


Software prototyping is highly beneficial for developing
systems that require extensive user interaction, such as
online applications.

Systems where users need to fill out forms or view various


Software screens before data processing can greatly benefit from
prototyping to convey the exact look and feel before
development.
Prototyping Prototyping is generally not suitable for software focused
Application on large-scale information processing, where most
functionality is internal with minimal user interaction.

In such cases, prototype development can add overhead


and require significant additional effort.

Dr. Saumil Maheshwari


Strengths of the prototyping model
 This model is the most appropriate for projects that suffer from technical, and requirements
risks. A constructed prototype helps overcome these risks.

Dr. Saumil Maheshwari


Weaknesses of the prototyping model
 The prototype model can increase the cost of development for projects that are routine
development work.

Dr. Saumil Maheshwari

their point of introduction as possible is
known as phase containment of errors.
