I just know that it exists and is going to be an OMG standard for software engineering kernel and language. I read artic les or books about Essenc e, but have no intention to apply it to real situations. I am c onsidering to use Essenc e in my software engineering projec ts or teac hing programs. I plan to use Essenc e in my software engineering projec ts or teac hing programs within the next 12 months. I am already applying Essenc e in my software engineering projec ts or teac hing programs, but have not realized its benefits yet. I have used Essenc e in my software engineering projec ts or teac hing programs, and have reaped the benefits from doing so. I know nothing about Essenc e.
