When you saw the words Free Software on the back cover of this book, you may have thought, Great, I can save some money! Or perhaps you thought that when it comes to software, quality costs and programs that can be downloaded for free can t be any good. If the latter is the case, I don t blame you for being skeptical, because Free! is a much-abused word. I m using the phrase Free Software in two senses. It s literally true that all the software you look at in this book is available as a free download, gratis. However, it s also free in the sense of creative or personal freedom, and that s much more important to me. To explain why, this section offers you a short history of computer programs, from my highly partial point of view. Did you ever see an old movie set at a time when a computer was the size of a wardrobe and had reels of tape spinning on the front At the height of the Cold War in the 1960s and 70s, computers really looked like that (see Figure 1-1). In those days, software wasn t something you bought in a shrinkwrapped box at the mall. Most programs were written to order for a relatively small group of users or one institution. Software wasn t so much a product in its own right; it was more like the means to an end making the very expensive computer hardware produce some useful output.

his is an expanded version of a piece that originally appeared on the SIGMOD website (http://wwwacmorg/sigmod) in May 2003 Here s the opening paragraph from that earlier piece: By now there cannot be many in the database community who are unaware that, sadly, Dr E F Codd passed away on April 18th, 2003 He was 79 Dr Codd, known universally to his colleagues and friends among whom I was proud to count myself as Ted, was the man who, singlehanded, put the field of database management on a solid scientific footing The entire relational database industry, now worth many billions of dollars a year, owes the fact of its existence to Ted s original work, and the same is true of all of the huge number of relational database research and teaching programs under way worldwide in universities and similar organizations.

Indeed, all of us who work in this field owe our career and livelihood to the giant contributions Ted made during the period from the late 1960s to the early 1980s We all owe him a huge debt This tribute to Ted and his achievements is offered in recognition of that debt However, I ve discovered I was operating on a false assumption when I wrote this paragraph To be more specific, I ve found and it s a sad comment on the state of our field that I feel I have to say this that many database practitioners, and even some researchers, really don t know who Ted was or what he did.

In my own day-to-day database activities (for example, on the seminars I teach), I often encounter people who ve never even heard of him! So I thought it would be a good idea to amplify and republish my original tribute: in particular, to elaborate briefly on the nature of some of Ted s numerous technical contributions I d also like to say a little more about Ted the man ie, Ted Codd as I personally remember him, and what he meant to me..
