  • The Relational Model Came Before Sqland Created a Need for SQL.The Power of SQL Liesnot in the Languageitself but in the Conceptsset Forth in the Relationalmodel
    fi,'1.,.!r'$ tt Uqt has a very practical exterior but a very theoretical interior. That interior is the relational rnodel.The relational model came before SQLand created a need for SQL.The power of SQL liesnot in the languageitself but in the conceptsset forth in the relationalmodel. These concepts form the basisof SQL'sdesign and operation. The relational model is a powerful and elegantidea that has pervadednot only computer sciencebut our daily lives aswell, whether we know it or not. Like the automobile, or penicillin, it is one of the many great examplesof human thought and discoverythat has fundamentally impacted the way the world works. The relational model has spawneda billion-dollar industry, and has become an integral part of almost every other industry. You'll seethe relational model at work nearly everywherethat dealswith information of any kind-in Fortune 500companies, universities,hospitals, grocery stores,websites, routers, MP3 players,cell phones, and even smart cards.It is truly pervasive. Background The relationalmodel wasborn in 1969,inside of IBM. A researchernamed E. F. Codd distributed an internal paper titled "Derivability, Redundancy,and Consistencyof RelationsStored in LargeData Banks,"which defined the basic theory of the relational model. This paper was circulated internally and not widely distributed. In 1970,Codd published a more refined version of this paper in Communicationsof theACM called "A RelationalModel for large SharedData Banks,"which is more widely recognizedas the seminal work on relational theory. This is the paper that changedthe industry. Despite the enormous influence of this paper, the relational model in its entirety did not appearovernight, or within the scopeof a singlehistoric paper.

Houts, California State University, Fresno, USA ABSTRACT This case study examines The Brownie Baker, which makes gourmet and specialty baked goods, from an operations management perspective. Its product line includes brownies, muffins, Danishes, cookies, cakes, and Hispanic pastries. Located in Fresno, California, the bakery distributes its products across much of the United States.

Perkins himself was named the Small Business Administration’s Central California Business Person of the Year in 1999, and The Brownie Baker was awarded the Small Business Administration’s Western Region Choice Award in 2004. This case details the operations strategies and management techniques that have led to these accomplishments.
