The Application Of The Rapid Prototyping In The Project Development

With the development of the information technology and the spread of the application domain, the software development becomes more complexity. The traditional lifecycle technique meets many difficulties in the progress of projects with vague requirement. Prototyping is the reasonable and effective resolution. A software rapid prototype is a dynamic runnable model including the key features of the final system and providing communication tool for customer and developer. We can get clear requirement and complete evaluation through the prototyping process. Prototyping includes throw梐way prototyping, evolutionary prototyping and demostration prototyping. The main contributions of the work includes three projects used prototyping method as follows:Flower3D--This is a visualization of the media player whichcan interact with the music rhythm. Because of its vague requirement we used throw-away prototyping to realize it.FlowerField--This is the follow-up for the previous one. Afterthe development of Flower3D, we designed a detailed feature list and used evolutionary prototyping and iterative increment development to implement it.SenseExchange--This is an interactive product which wasshown on the first New Media Expo. We used demostration prototyping to develop the project with technique in various fields.
