A Scientific Rapid Prototyping Model for the Haskell Language

A simple methodology for computational and scientific rapid prototyping in Haskell is proposed. The methodology is based on identifying abstractions that are defined over entire list data structures combined with identifying a set of processes that initially construct a list data structure and subsequently modify that data structure in iterative steps leading to a final post modification process to output the data structure. A case study exemplifies and details an application of the proposed model.The results indicate that the proposed methodology can be easily implemented for developers or coders with little in-depth knowledge of functional programming capabilities; thereby, enabling applicability for a wide range of users.
