Abstract/Summary: Certainly, the inequality of requirement priority challenges developers in evaluating the sequences of requirements implementation in a particular software development project. Although many researches have studied on requirement prioritization, there are inadequate evidence to support large scale of requirement. Since there are various priority methods available, it is a crucial task for software engineer to select the proper one that is suitable for numerous requirements. This paper discusses on an approach to choose the prioritizing method which overcomes the large scale of requirements issue. The selected method functions in minimizing effort. In addition, such an approach must provide significant outcome in evaluation for requirement prioritization, particularly for software requirement and other identical areas as well.
