| A simple example of how to rank requirements by priority
|
|  For example   
|    Priority = (Importance x 100%) + (Penality x 50%) - (Risk x 50%) - (Cost x 100%).



some-requirement has importance some-imp penalty some-pen risk some-risk and cost some-cost
that-imp * 1 = some-imp-weight
that-pen * 0.5 = some-pen-weight
that-risk * 0.5 = some-risk-weight
that-cost * 1 = some-cost-weight
that-imp-weight + that-pen-weight = some-upside-weight
that-risk-weight + that-cost-weight = some-downside-weight
that-upside-weight - that-downside-weight = some-priority
------------------------------------------------------------
that-requirement has priority that-priority


this-requirement has importance this-imp penalty this-pen risk this-risk and cost this-cost
