Abstract

Rapid prototyping is especially effective when implementing interactive information management systems. With the right tools, the development process for these systems involves the generation of successive prototypes where each successor is closer to the user requirement. The final prototype becomes either the production system or a production subsystem which is integrated into the total system. The tools used to generate successive prototypes are called application generators and program generators. There are several software engineering issues addressed by these tools.
