This approach (MVV/LVA or Most Valuable Victim, Least Valuable Attacker) was designed for hardware move generators, as this is easy to do with some parallel hardware for each square. It works OK for normal chess programs, although SEE is generally better. It just means (a) find the most valuable piece that is attacked by the moving side, and then (b) capture it by the least valuable piece that is attacking it. Very simple to implement.
