COMPARISON OF SIX PRIORITIZATION TECHNIQUES FOR SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS

Manju Khari, Nikunj Kumar

There are many requirements prioritization techniques and selecting the most appropriate one is a decision problem in its own rights. This paper takes a closer look at the six requirement prioritization techniques and put them in a controlled experiment with the objective of understanding differences regarding ease of use, total time taken, scalability, accuracy, and total number of comparisons required to make decisions. These five criteria combined will indicate which technique is more suitable. The result from the experiment shows that Value oriented Prioritization (VOP) yields an accurate result, can scale up, and requires the least amount of time.
