Software Requirements Prioritization deals with the decision about the order requirements will be scheduled for implementation. We see both examples from heavy-weight methods (AHP, SQF), and Agile Requirements (Planning Poker + Planning Game). Planning Poker will be discussed in more detail in the next lecture when we will estimate the effort for requirements.
