Requirements prioritization is applied to identify which artifacts must be implemented first, in order to create a product that best satisfies the customer's need by using the smallest number of resources.However, the task of prioritizing requirements is challenging and complex, and there is no well-defined set of mechanisms that help this activity.This article aims at identifying and analyzing the mechanisms to support the requirements prioritization.So, a systematic mapping review was conducted.The result is a report that presents the different types of publications (journals, conference papers, thesis, book chapters), the published year, the supporting mechanisms, the phases of the requirements engineering process, and the prioritization techniques and tools used.It was observed that the prioritization requirements field is quite needy of mechanisms and tools that support this activity, mainly that ones that provide visual resources.
