Prioritizing requirements is a crucial ingredient of successful Requirements Engineering (RE). The popular prioritization techniques assume that stakeholders are known and can be mandated to contribute to the prioritization process. This prerequisite no longer holds for many of today's systems where significant stakeholders (end-users, in particular) are outside organizational reach: they are neither known nor can they be identified among the members of the involved organizations. Classic techniques for involving these stakeholders such as polls or questionnaires are neither interactive nor collaborative, which is detrimental for prioritization. Social media enable collaborative prioritization, but fall short in motivating stakeholders outside organizational reach to participate voluntarily. In this light, we are developing the Garuso platform, which combines social media with gamification for motivating stakeholders. While first approaches to employing gamification in RE are promising, research is still in its infancy. Especially, little is known about the influence of the gamification algorithms controlling single game elements on the stakeholders' activities. In this paper we report on a field experiment in which we investigated this influence with Garuso. We found statistically significant differences between different algorithms controlling single game elements on the contributions of stakeholders to the prioritization of requirements.

“…It is assumed that an initial set of requirements has been collected and the requirements have been identified using a requirements elicitation process. The task of optimizing requirements is usually regarded to be a challenging and hard problem in itself [3,4,5] Nevertheless, there are still several feasible approaches in previous works that address the solution of this problem [6,7,8] but none is absolute. So, in software engineering, determining the set of requirements is a critical foundation for the success of a project.…”

<p>Requirements analysis is the first phase of software development process and it is one of the main concerns of software engineers. The selection of requirements is a complex problem caused by the heterogeneity of the users and their varied interests and demands. In this paper, it is justified that their is a strong need of optimization in requirement analysis. The paper argues that requirement selection can be viewed as an application area of Search-Based Software Engineering(SBSE). The aim is to justify the claim that requirement engineering can be re-formulated as search problem to which meta-heuristic technique can be applied.</p>
