    Prototyping Model: Presented by Anip Shah

    The prototyping model requires building a working prototype of the system before full development. A prototype exhibits limited functionality compared to the final system. Prototyping is used in requirements gathering and analysis to understand user needs. If requirements change, the prototype is refined before full development. There are two types of prototyping - throwaway prototypes use minimal effort and are discarded, while evolutionary prototypes form the basis for future versions and the full system. Advantages include increased user involvement and reduced risks, while disadvantages include potential scope creep and effort wasted on prototypes.

    Prototyping Model

    Presented by
    Anip Shah

    Prototyping Model
    The prototyping model requires that before carrying out
    the development of the actual software , a working
    prototype of the system should be built.
    A prototype usually turns out to be a very crude version
    of the actual system, possibly exhibiting limited
    functional capabilities as compared to the actual
    software.
    The prototyping approach is used in the requirement
    gathering and in the analysis phase to capture the exact
    requirement of the proposed system. After the
    requirements are frozen, the remaining phases of the
    development process needs to be executed
    Prototype model should be used when the desired system
    needs to have a lot of interaction with the end users.

    Types of Prototyping Models


    Throwaway/Rapid Prototyping
    This type of prototyping uses very little efforts with minimum
    requirement analysis to build a prototype. Once the actual
    requirements are understood, the prototype is discarded and the
    actual system is developed with a much clear understanding of
    user requirements.
    Examples of throwaway prototypes include screen mock-ups and
    story boards.
    Evolutionary Prototyping
    Evolutionary prototyping is based on building actual functional
    prototypes with minimal functionality in the beginning. The
    prototype developed forms the heart of the future prototypes on
    top of which the entire system is built. Using evolutionary
    prototyping only well understood requirements are included in
    the prototype

    Advantages of Prototyping Model


    Increases user involvement in the product even before
    implementation
    Since working model of the system is displayed, the
    users get a better understanding of the system being
    developed
    Reduces time and cost as the defects can be detected
    much earlier
    Missing functionality can be identified easily
    Confusing or difficult functions can be identified
    Helps in reducing risk associated with the project
    The developer gains experience and insight by
    developing a prototype
    Code

    Disadvantages of Prototyping Model


    May increase the complexity of the system as scope of
    the system may expand beyond original plans
    Risk of insufficient requirement analysis owing to too
    much dependency on prototype
    User confusion of prototype and finished system
    Developer attachment to prototype
    The effort invested in building prototype may be too
    much if not monitored properly
    It may comprise on the overall quality of the software in
    the rush to develop the prototype
