Rapid Prototyping Model Rapid prototyping has long been used in the development of one-off programs, based on the familiar model of the chemical engineer's pilot plant. More recently it has been used to prototype larger systems in two variants-the "throwaway" model and the "operational" model, which is really the incremental model to be discussed later. This development process produces a program that performs some essential or perhaps typical set of functions for the final product. A throwaway prototype approach is often used if the goal is to test the implementation method, language, or end-user acceptability. If this technology is completely viable, the prototype may become the basis of the final product development, but normally it is merely a vehicle to arrive at a completely secure functional specification, as shown in Figure 1.4. From that point on the process is very similar to the waterfall model. The major difference between this and the waterfall model is not just the creation of the operational prototype or functional subset; the essence is that it be done very quickly-hence the term rapid prototyping.3 Prototype model In this model, a prototype (an early approximation of a final system or product) is built, tested, and then reworked as necessary until an acceptable prototype is finally achieved from which the complete system or product can now be developed. Prototype paradigm begins with requirements gathering. Developer and customer meet and define the overall objectives for the software, identify whatever requirements are known, and outline areas where further definition is mandatory. A quick design occurs which leads to the construction of prototype. The prototype is evaluated by the customer/user and used to refine the requirements for the software to be developed. Iteration occurs as the prototype is tuned to satisfy the user requirements, while at the same time enabling developer to better understand what needs to be done.
* Prototyping includes more customer attention or intraction rather than waterfall model. * Prototypes have a model to study and work, where waterfall do not have any model till last, what ever we developed that comes in last.
In throwaway prototype model we discard the prototype and start from scratch. In evolutionary prototype model we make changes in the prototype and refine it.
In incremental model the real product is designed, implemented, integrated and tested as a series of incremental builds. while In prototype model the prototype (not the real product) is designed, implemented, integrated and tested as a series of incremental builds
They will create a model which is similar to that of the dimensions of the prototype. And also the model which is created should hsve same material properties of that of the prototype. And the model can be tested in the laboratory.
spiral model and prototype model
The prototype of the robot went wrong. Definition: A first or preliminary model of something
It can be!
test the model
Which of the following are the reason for using a model?a) A model is quicker and easier to build than the real thingb) We can use the model as prototype of the systemc) We can use a model instead of building the real thingd) We can use a model in simulations to test our ideas
use a 3D printer you can make a prototype on a computer and have it printed in plastic. 3D printers can cost as low as $1000
Prototype Model is used when high level user involvement required,like for online systems,web applications,systems requiring good interface,and when our customer don't know the functionality of software.
Prototype model is the best way to understand customer's requirements. A prototype is re- generated until it meets the expectations of the user

A model is a representation or simulation of a system, while a prototype is a working version of a product being developed.
Prototype innovation is a new method or idea to a first or preliminary model of something,
that would be prototype
