No Silver Bullet: Essence and Accidents of Software Engineering The article was written in 1987. Twenty five years in computer time is virtually equivalent to eternity. Even so‚ the article holds up rather well. Most of the problems Brooks describes with software complexity remain today. Brooks was perhaps a bit overly pessimistic; he considered the state of software engineering at the time to be in crisis. Using Brooks’ analysis‚ modern‚ even more complex software should be at a developmental

Researchers have identified the activity of Silver NPs exerted the antibacterial effect in two steps. First‚ they changed the membrane potential and reduced adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthase activities‚ thus reducing the metabolism process. Secondly‚ they declined the subunit of the ribosome for tRNA binding‚ thus collapsing its biological mechanism. At the same time‚ they proved to be less toxic to mammal cells [26]. Silver NPs with a small size and enhanced surface area produce some electronic
