Microsoft 's leading computer expert James Gray - who has a great deal of effort to bring the ATM system into operation, has gone missing without leaving a trace.

On the morning of Sunday, January 28, James Gray decided to make the journey alone on the sailboat Tenacious to the Farallon Island cluster, near San Francisco, USA. Gray, a leading technical expert at the Microsoft Research Institute in San Francisco, informed his family that he wanted to go and sprinkle ash of his father, who died at the age of 97 last year.

After a few minutes of departure, Gray phoned his wife and daughter around 10 am local time, saying that the weather on the sea was very good and he saw dolphins swimming along the sides of the boat. Gray also predicted that his phone might be out of range for several hours. Since then, there is no news of Gray.

The American genius professor often does not have the habit of carrying safety equipment every time traveling on a sailboat alone. So far, four days after the disappearance, despite efforts to find, the rescue workers still have no clue about his mysterious disappearance.

In an interview with the San Jose Mercury newspaper on January 31, Gray's daughter, Heather, said: ' I really don't know what happened to my father. The weather was very beautiful and the sea was calm and calm . '

The San Francisco sailors thought that the weather was ideal for Gray to make the 60-mile journey with light wind, no big waves and great foresight. The route to the Farallons Island cluster is almost straight.

According to rescue experts, if Gray had a health problem, such as a heart attack, or even if he slipped off a boat, Gray's Tenacious continued on. Journey and still found a few days later.

However, many people also believe that it is not safe to go to the beach alone, especially through the area near the Golden Gate Bridge. That area, boats can collide with floating debris on the surface of the sea - often the place to attack whales, making the sailboat sink very quickly.

Many people ask questions if there is a problem with Tenacious, why didn't Gray give an emergency signal to ask for help? Meanwhile, Heather Gray said her father had no intention of committing suicide and doubted his grandmother's death had plunged him to the surface.

James Gray was born in 1944, is a famous American computer expert. He used to work for giant computer firms like IBM, Tandem Computers and DEC. Since 1995, Gray has become a leading technical expert at the Microsoft Research Institute in San Francisco.

At the age of 63, Gray had remarkable achievements in his career. He was the one who created the computer data system for ATMs, online flight bookings as well as online telescopes in operation.

In 1998, Gray won the Turing Award, equivalent to the Nobel Prize in the field of computer science, for great contributions in the field of data research.
