   Software developmentlife cycle prototype model is based on building software applications prototypes, also known as evolutionary approach.  A prototype acts as a sample to test the process. From this sample we learn and try to build a better final product.  While making the model, user keeps giving feedbacks from time to time and based on it, a prototype is made.

   Whenever thecustomer not clears about the requirement in this situation we generally go for prototype model.  If it is complex project then prototype model makes clear understand the requirement.  Prototyping make sure that the customer constantly work with the system and provide a feedback about the system.

  Requirement Identification Design Stage Build theInitial Prototype Review of the Prototype Iteration and Enhancement of Prototype Identification of product requirements is cleared in details. It is done through interview some users . A first-round design is created in this stage for the new system. An initial prototype the target software is built from the original design. Working off all the product components may not be perfect or accurate. After the product completes it is presented to the customer .The response is accumulated in an organized way & used for further system enhancements. After the review it is set for further enhancement based on factors like - time, workforce as well as budget. Also, actual implementation is checked.

   A workingmodel of the system is provided, the users get a better understanding of the system being developed.  Errors can be detected much earlier.  Quicker user feedback is available leading to better solutions.  Missing functionality can be identified easily.  Users are actively involved in the development.

   It isa slow process.  Too much involvement of client, is not always preferred by the developer.  Too many changes can disturb the rhythm of the development team.  If client is not satisfied with the developed prototype, new prototype should be made, this may lead to be expensive.

  There are manySDLC models such as Agile, RAD and Waterfall etc All these different software development models have their own advantages and disadvantages. Timing is very crucial in software development. If a delay happens in the development phase, the market could be taken over by the competitor.
