Onecharacter asks the other what he would advise Atlas do with an increasingly heavy burden, andthat character indicates he would suggest Atlas shrug. The inference of course, is that shouldAtlas do so, the world would slide off his stalwart shoulders, sending every human being on itinto certain oblivion. It‘s a hyperbolic metaphor, but there are doubtless any number of collegeprofessors who feel a bit like Atlas these days

However, we believe that there are overarching factors in prototyping that can be Page 25.1091.3applied across all development endeavors, and that by keeping these factors in mind, engineerscan more efficiently and successfully bring products from concept to completion. It is the goalof this work to examine any current strategies and see where and why they fall short, as well asto present an initial attempt at a method to strategically approaching engineering prototyping.The Business ApproachWhile businesses recognize the importance of innovation, the
