9 Which of the options is not an advantage of Lo-fi prototypes?

It can evolve into implementation.

Fast iterations
Expensive equipment needed.
It can test multiple alternatives and the number of iterations is tied to final quality

10 Which of the options is not an another name for widget?

module
snippet
gadget
design

11 Every user interface consists of the following, except?

Input handling
Stroke drawing
Pixel model
Iconic model

12 Which of the following is an advantage of Widget

Encourage menu & forms style, rather than richer direct manipulation style
Constrain designer’s thinking
Reuse of development efforts
May be used inappropriately

13 What is the full meaning of the acronym MVC?

Modular-View-Code
Modular-View-Controller
Model-View-Controller
None is correct

14 The following are advantages of a prototype, except?

Early visibility of the prototype gives users an idea of what the final system looks like
Encourages active participation among users and producer
User can get too involved whereas the program can not be to a high standard
Helps to refine the potential risks associated with the delivery of the system being developed

15 Which of the options is not one of the prototyping tools?

Demo makers
Ms-Excel
Visual RAD tools such as Visual Basic, Optima++ and Borland Delphi
4GLs

16 Which of the options is not one of the steps in Prototyping Model?

A preliminary design is created for the new system.

Routine maintenance is carried out on a continuing basis to prevent large-scale failures and to minimize downtime.
The new system requirements are defined in as much detail
The first prototype is modified,not based on the comments supplied by the users, and a second prototype of the new
system is constructed.

17 Which of the options is not true about a prototype?

Prototyping may improve communication between and among

Prototypes may be easily changed or even discarded.
A prototype may serve as a marketing tool.
Working prototypes may lead management and customers to believe that the final product is almost ready for delivery.

18 The following are characteristics of a prototype, except?

Executability
Maturation

Representation
Options A and B

19 Which of the following should not be considered before building a prototype?

Choice of prototyping too and its limitation

Composition of the team

Maximum lenth of an iteration cycle

Level of fidelity is needed in the prototype at last step

20 Which of the following is not a pitfall of a prototype?

Prototyping may stall if members of the team do not have enough decision-making authority.
The context of use for a prototype may be very different from the context of use for the final system.
The prototyping environment less vested in a particular design, hence more open to change and innovation.
There is no guarantee that the positions of developers and customers will converge during the iteration cycle.
