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.
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)
