Sumario:Throughout its existence, Computer has been at the center of discussion over how software should be engineered and how it should be developed. No article has been so central to the discussion as "No Silver Bullet" by Frederick P. Brooks. Yet, almost 35 years after he wrote this contribution to knowledge, Brooks's observation remains true.
