Prototyping
Prototyping plays a vital role in the development of high quality user interfaces at various stages of the design process. Since data binding and other implementation aspects are not involved, creating and updating prototypes is both cost and time efficient.
Visualization
Prototypes enable us to elaborate and continuously consolidate design ideas through visualization.
In addition, they channel the essential communication of the design process by facilitating productive discussion through concrete, tangible proposals.
Evaluation
An iterative design and test strategy using prototypes is the perfect method of evaluating design artifacts at an early stage.
As the precise requirements of future systems may be difficult to predict, prototypes enable us to ensure that an interactive system will meet the demands.

Static versus InteractiveMockups are static, but very detailed, screen designs which we use to explore different variations of the visual design and to envision interaction workflows. They allow you to visualize the future look of the interface and to get a feel for its handling. |
In particular, modern technologies such as Javascript libraries or Expression Blend make it possible to develop extensive prototypes at reasonable expense.
They have a very realistic appearance and high potential for reuse in the implementation phase.
High fidelity prototypes provide a very authentic representation of the expected user actions and workflows.
