 Prototype-based programming - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Prototype-based programming is a style and subset of object-oriented programming in which classes are not present, and behavior reuse (known as inheritance in class-based languages) is done by cloning existing objects which serve as prototypes for the new ones.
The original (and canonical) example of a prototype based language is Self, but the class-less programming style has recently grown increasingly popular, and has been adopted for the programming languages Cecil, JavaScript, NewtonScript, Io, MOO, REBOL, and several others.
A prototype system starts with at least one atomic object loaded, and new objects are created by cloning existing ones.

 November 93 - Prototype-based OOLs
Prototypes form the basis of the data-description model in a prototype-based language and delegation is the mechanism by which code is dynamically selected for execution.
You might have noticed that prototypes are simply data values, references to which are presumably stored in the objects cloned from them (commonly called their 'children'), and the delegates are also just references to objects.
A prototype of a window object is itself a window object and it has all the data and behavioral features of any of the objects that it is used to create.

 Psychological Criticism of the Prototype-Based OO-Languages
Prototypes are special objects that cannot be used where normal objects can, they are meant only to be blueprints of which normal objects are constructed from.
Prototypes, in the prototype theory, are objects as any other objects - it just happens that they are better examples of the category; that is all the difference there is.
Prototypes are concrete, fully functional objects that are not instantiated from a class.

 Savage, Tools, Animation
Prototype definition for toggle-able Material node that can choose among an array of material nodes, and is switchable at run time.
This prototype generates bathymetry based on the input data, and uses Extrusion as the output geometry (with some problems as a result).
This prototype also demonstrates why it is important that only the first node in a ProtoBody can render: so that it can serve as a special node type (such as Material).

 Class Warfare: Classes vs. Prototypes
For instance, the use of prototype cloning vs. metalevel object "factories" distinguishes the prototype-based architectures from the class-based ones.
For instance, graphical objects such as character fonts and icons that are constructed interactively rather than created using some initialization protocol are better dealt with using prototypes.
Class-based object oriented systems are far superior to conventional programming systems in meeting such demands [Foote 1988].

 Untitled
Implementing the prototype approach to sharing knowledge in object oriented systems is an alternative mechanism called delegation, appearing in the actor languages, and several Lisp-based object oriented systems such as Director [Kahn 79], T [Rees 85], Orbit [Steels 82], and others.
The philosophy of object oriented programming is to use the object representation to encode both the procedures and data of conventional languages.
Prototype systems allow creating individual concepts first, then generalizing them by saying what aspects of the concept are allowed to vary.

 Object Oriented Programming in JavaScript
Prototype's in JavaScript are associated with an object's constructor.
This is because I need to add these method definition to the newly created prototype object, rather than add them to the default prototype for the derived constructor function.
And in fact, a prototype can refer to another prototype in a chain leading up to the prototype association with the base Object constructor.

The main goals of the prototype are to support a large class of active rules semantics and to generate an optimized code for the rules execution on different database systems.
After the prototype application has been generated, the design team (along with a selected group of application users) can use the rapid prototype to exercise (i.e., execute) the application (or a part of it) and verify its functional correctness.

 Differential inheritance in JavaScript - MozillaZine Knowledge Base
Differential Inheritance is a common prototype-oriented model that uses the concept that most objects are derived from other, more generic objects, and only differ in a few small aspects.
By manipulating this property, a developer can emulate "differential inheritance", a common technique in prototype-oriented programming models.
Each object maintains a reference to its prototype and a table of properties that are different.

 DESIGNING A NATIONAL GEOLOGIC MAP DATABASE—THE KENTUCKY OBJECT-ORIENTED PROTOTYPE
The longest standing prototype uses geologic map information from Kentucky in a data model with an object-oriented design, and was implemented in GE-Smallworld database technology.
The prototype was developed by analyzing existing map data for a 30 x 60 minute geologic quadrangle (composed of 32 7.5-minute quadrangles) to identify necessary database features.
Subsequent prototypes will advance the concepts developed here, and will begin to provide public access to the geologic database.

Workshop on Prototype Based Object Oriented Programming (ECOOP '97)
More recently, the philosphical focus of prototype-based programming (on concrete objects, rather than on abstractions like classes) has been recognised as at least as important as how objects are created, so this kind of programming has also been called object-based or object-centered.

 Moonflare: MLud: Feature summary
Thus, a class is represented in MLud as an object, complete with state, while the equivalent of its instances delegate to the class object, except that functionality can be added to the "instances", and new objects can, in turn, delegate to them.
The resulting structures allow high flexibility at run-time, and foster fast prototyping and better conceptual models of the system.
