To prototype or not to prototype? That is the question

Software Engineering Journal, 1992
The paper describes an experiment carried out at the Cranfield Institute of Technology to compare the prototyping approach with that of the structured approach for KBS development. The components and constraints imposed on the exercise are presented to provide the background of the experiment.

Live Prototyping

Proceedings of the 2016 ACM Conference on Designing Interactive Systems, 2016
The technical skills required to effect functional and material changes to high fidelity prototypes can create barriers to the participation of other stakeholders in prototyping activities. In this paper we present an industrial case in which a "live" prototyping approach was trialled during the development of a new programmable radiator thermostat.

Recognition by Prototypes

Proceedings of IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 1992
A scheme for recognizing 3D objects from single 2D images under orthographic projection is introduced. The scheme proceeds in two stages. In the first stage, the categorization stage, the image is compared to prototype objects. For each prototype, the view that most resembles the image is recovered, and, if the view is found to be similar to the image,

Conceptual prototyping

Proceedings of the 1983 annual conference on Computers : Extending the human resource - ACM 83, 1983
Requirements engineering involves three processes: (1) problem recognition; (2) problem understanding; (3) solution space specification. [5] This paper focuses on problem recognition and problem understanding—the needs determination component of requirements engineering.

Prototypes and prototyping in design research

2014
In contrast, our focus will be on the roles of prototypes as vehicles for research about, for and through design. We focus on prototyping within research processes that necessarily involve design activities, which we will refer to as constructive design research, i.e.

Visionary prototyping

IEEE Robotics & Automation Magazine, 2001
Today, besides introducing intelligence directly into equipment/systems through embedded microcomputers and providing virtual prototyping through enhanced computer-aided design/computer-aided engineering (CAD/CAE) facilities, information now is well regarded as an essential part of the integrated design approach whereby all members of the prototype ...

Prototypes as performative

Proceedings of the 4th decennial conference on Critical computing: between sense and sensibility, 2005
This paper considers performative aspects of prototyping in design. Drawing on STS and a casestudy involving a prototypical disease management technology, it exemplify and discuss prototyping as a performative process that produces specific subjectivities and bodies.

On Indistinguishability and Prototypes

Logic Journal of IGPL, 2003
Summary: Tolerance spaces are sets equipped with a reflexive, symmetric, but not necessarily transitive, relation of indistinguishability, and are useful for describing vagueness based on error-prone measurements. We show that any tolerance space can be embedded in one generated by comparisons using prototypical objects.

What is Prototyping?

Information Technology & People, 1990
Explains and defines prototyping in terms of its character, actors and types. Examines four aspects: its use in the software development process, its goals, horizontal and vertical and the relationship between prototype and application system. Clarifies the distinction between breadboard and prototype.

Advanced Prototyping With Parametric Prototypes

2007
The “Parametric Prototype” has been developed as a tool for integrated parametric and physical shape representation to optimize styling and design. This tool will be applied in the early phases of the product development process at an appropriate level of detail, e.g. for the fast visualization of car parameters and proportions of the exterior car body.
