  • Prototyping is an iterative process that converts the requirement into working system by continuously monitoring the work between the users and analyst.
  • The analysts develop the prototype for the user interface design.
  • The prototypes are the simulation model of the navigations controls, forms, reports, input mechanism and output mechanism.
  • Each interface has a separate prototype to represent the working procedure of the system to the user and the programmers.
