Abstract

A software system prototype is an operational model that exhibits the behavioral and structural characteristics of the desired software product. We describe a prototyping system that automatically generates compilable prototypes by transforming an abstract data type specification into a program. The prototyping system consists of two versions: a compiler on MULTICS that generates PL/1 code, and a compiler on UNIX that generates ADA code. The proposed approach allows the specification developer to investigate the behavior of the specifications and define implementation models.
