"Lec 21 - The Search for Jim Gray" May 28, 2008 lecture for the Stanford University Computer Systems Colloquium (EE380). When Jim Gray, a noted computer scientist and Turing award winner, disappeared at sea, a massive effort was mounted to find him. A panel of speakers touches on both the technical approaches employed in the search and on the social side where the community organized a massive effort quickly and efficiently. Panel Members: Captain David J. Swatland (Deputy Sector Commander for the Coast Guard Sector San Francisco) Donna Carnes (Jim Gray's Wife) Mike Olson (Long time friend of Jim Gray; founder of Sleepcat Software, former Oracle VP) EE380 | Computer Systems Colloquium: http://www.stanford.edu/class/ee380/ Stanford Computer Systems Laboratory: http://csl.stanford.edu/ Stanford Center for Professional Development: http://scpd.stanford.edu/ Stanford University: http://www.stanford.edu/ Stanford University channel on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/stanford/
