User Interface Prototyping is seen as a great value adder to the entire project; it helps to get better user input, show the final functionality to some extent, and determine short-comings. However, like any other process, it has its weaknesses and pitfalls and one needs to be careful in the prototyping process, and never lose […]
Benefits of user interface prototyping early in the cycle

It is recommended that user interface prototyping not be left to latter stages of the project (say when the code has already been written). Prototyping can be considered as a risk reduction activity. What are some of the benefits available due to prototyping?
* Elucidate requirements. A prototype can “translate” the domain vocabulary of users into […]
What is user interface prototyping ?
Filed Under Interface, UI, Prototyping | Posted on February 16, 2008
A prototype is a semi-functional simulation of the product, and an inexpensive alternative to full technical implementation. Prototyping is an excellent means for generating ideas about how a user interface can be designed, and it helps to evaluate the quality of a solution at an early stage. Prototypes may be created using tools such as […]
