Abstract	:	Requirements prioritization is an important activity during requirements collection and management phase of software engineering. Prioritization of small size requirements is not an issue but its importance increases when requirements are large in size. Different prioritization techniques are suggested to prioritize different types of requirements but none of the suggested techniques are applied to prioritize software requirements based on dependencies in functional requirements (FRs) from the perspective of software developers. This study addresses this research gap by applying Cumulative Voting (CV) and Priority Groups based prioritization approach to prioritize FRs. Using spanning trees, all FRs are first inter-related and then CV is applied first to assign priority values to each requirement belong to different spanning trees. Using priority groups, prioritized requirements belong to different spanning trees are assigned to priority groups such that all FRs inside each priority groups have similar priority. To do so, FRs of ODOO ERP as case study are considered for prioritization. Prioritized FRs can be easily managed by parallel development team members without having dependencies in FRs of priority group.
