In Greek mythology who sacrificed his daughter so that the winds would cease to blow?

No, on the contrary. At the start of the Trojan War, when the Greek fleet had gathered at Aulis, Artemis stopped all winds, so the fleet could not sail. Agamemnon, the leader of the fleet, prepared to sacrifice his daughter Iphigenia, to make Artemis change her mind. Before the sacrifice was carried through, Artemis took the girl away and made her a priestess in Artemis' temple on another Island, Aulis.

How did Cassandra die?

The movie "Troy" removed the role of Cassandra, one of the children of Priam and Hecuba of Troy. Cassandra had been gifted with prophecy, but cursed with the inability to make others believe her prophecies. Agamemnon took her as a war prize and concubine, and returned with her to Greece to his wife Clytemnestra. Clytemnestra was jealous, and still angry with Agamemnon for having killed their daughter Iphigenia at Aulis, so she (or her lover, Aegisthus, Agamemnon's cousin), killed Agamemnon and Cassandra. The son of Clytemnestra and Agamemnon, Orestes, revenged his father's death by killing Clytemnestra.
