A Majority Voting Goal Based technique for Requirement Prioritization

Abstract

Requirement prioritization (RP) plays an important role in software development phases. There are many techniques which are used for RP. By using these techniques, at time, specific goals of developed system also required to be fine-tuned. Sometimes we have a deadlock situation in RP and it's necessary to select only those requirements which are relatively more appropriate to satisfy the specific goals. In this paper we are proposing a novel technique, namely: Majority Voting Goal Based (MVGB) technique for RP. The proposed technique manages the deadlock situation that may occur while satisfying the most appropriate stakeholders' requirements for achieving specific goals.
