Research on Service-Oriented Framework of Interface Prototype Driven Development

Web service technologies are becoming increasingly popular for integrating systems and services. Service-oriented architecture (SOA) will provide flexible business flows for application system. This paper describes a service-oriented framework of interface prototype driven development (IPDD), and the formal description is presented, where four sub-processes are discussed respectively. An instance is used to show how to apply the framework to guide the software development process, by which quick conversion from requirements analysis to effective design will be completed. The analysis of two similar projects under different frameworks indicates that the IPDD framework has a theoretical basis and conforms to the engineering principle. This framework supports an instant response to requirements changes and improves the quality and efficiency of analysis and design for data-centered application system.
