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.
