## No Silver Bullet – Essence and Accident in Software Engineering Mike Ballou “There is no single development, in either technology or management technique, which by itself promises even one order-of-magnitude in simplicity.” ## Abstract “All software construction involves essential tasks, the fashioning of the complex conceptual structures that compose the abstract software entity, and accidental tasks, the onto machine languages within space and speed constraints.” ## Abstract “Most of the big gains in software productivity have come from removing artificial barriers that have made the accidental tasks inordinately
