James N Gray (Jim Gray) was a computer scientist whose major contributions include formalising a theory for reliable transaction processing of large databases and implementing systems based on his theory. This work was crucial to implement reliable financial transactions by banks and other financial institutions. (Financial transactions are a subset of all transactions.) In addition, he is credited with coining the term Fourth Paradigm, i.e., data driven scientific discovery by scientists who collect humongous amount of data with modern scientific instruments. He also collaborated with diverse groups of scientists to organize the data collected by them to facilitate easy retrieval and interpretation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
