General Model for Requirements Prioritization and Assignment to Increments

Software development is a very consuming process as it consumes the development company resources, budget, and time.In some cases, there is a restriction on the workload that the company can perform.Moreover, in some cases software products are required in less time than estimated production time.To resolve such issues, software development is divided into increments that fit with those restrictions.This involves selecting a subset of requirements with higher priority.In this research a model is proposed to optimize the selection process of the requirements to be developed during an increment by maximizing returns and restricting other factors to the maximum restriction with dependency concern.
