Abstract
Model-based software prototyping enables the effective construction of design tools for new system design approaches in a very short time. In this paper, we show that explicit interface modelling is well-suited to integrate such prototyped tools into design environments. In addition, we point out how our model-based generative approach supports the evolution of prototypes very well. We present the prototyping methodology of Dual Dynamics Designer - a novel development tool for behaviour-oriented robot software. We demonstrate how a first prototype evolved into a fully-fledged design tool working as an integrated part in our robot design environment.
