Prottyping Model

A prototyping model can be used when technical solutions are unclear to the development
team. A developed prototype can help engineers to critically examine the technical issues
associated with the product development

A prototype is a toy implementation of the system. A prototype usually exhibits limited


functional capabilities, low reliability, and inefficient performance compared to the actual
software. A prototype is usually built using several shortcuts. The shortcuts might involve
using inefficient, inaccurate, or dummy functions

A prototype of the actual product is preferred in situations such as:


• User requirements are not complete
• Technical issues are not clear
EVOLUTIONARY MODEL
It is also called successive versions model or incremental model. At first, a simple working model is
built. Subsequently it undergoes functional improvements & we keep on adding new functions till the
desired system is built.
Applications:
Large projects where you can easily find modules for incremental implementation. Often used
when the customer wants to start using the core features rather than waiting for the full software.

Advantages:
User gets a chance to experiment partially developed system
Reduce the error because the core modules get tested thoroughly.
Disadvantages:
It is difficult to divide the problem into several versions that would be acceptable to the
customer which can be incrementally implemented and delivered.
