Value Based Fuzzy Requirement Prioritization and Its Evaluation Framework

Requirement engineering is one of the most significant phases of software engineering. Success or failure of any software project relies heavily on better requirement engineering process. Better awareness of the requirements is fundamental for requirements engineering. Requirement Prioritization is an important component of requirement engineering process. In this paper, we have highlighted some serious shortcomings related to existing requirement prioritization techniques. Based on these findings, we have proposed an intelligent fuzzy logic based technique for requirements prioritization based on the perceived value of each requirement. We have also proposed a framework for evaluation of existing as well as proposed requirement prioritization techniques.
