Requirementsprioritization is a way that can play important role in theselection of requirements. Selecting the right order ofrequirements for product release depends on how successfullythe requirements are prioritized. There are differentrequirement prioritization methods available with differentcharacteristics. In this paper, we take a closer look of 9different Requirement Prioritization techniques, namedasFuzzy Analytical hierarchy process(FAHP), ClassicalAnalytical hierarchy process(AHP), Hierarchy Analyticalhierarchy process, minimal spanning tree, bubble sort, binarysearch tree, priority groups, planning game, and 100 pointmethod. The Criteria used that are used for comparison are:required completion time, ease of use, reliability, and requirednumber of comparison.
