DAIMLER BENZ DIVISION INSTALLS NEW CRAY RESEARCH
SUPERCOMPUTER

EAGAN, Minn., July 28, 1994 -- Cray Research, Inc. (NYSE: CYR)
today announced that debis Systemhaus (dSH) GmbH, the
information technology services division of Daimler Benz, has
installed a CRAY C94 supercomputer at its Stuttgart, Germany,
computing facility.  The CRAY C94 system was installed in May
and is an upgrade to a CRAY C92 supercomputer installed in
December 1993.

The CRAY C94 supercomputer will be used by Daimler Benz
engineers and external customers to perform analysis of
structures, acoustics, crash performance, computational fluid
dynamics and metal forming in the design and manufacture of
automobiles, aircraft and other products.  The system will be
networked to two other Cray Research supercomputers located
in the company's Stuttgart and Munich facilities.

"The mission of dSH as an information technologies supplier is
to provide the best and most economic computing resources to
our customers.  The value obtained from the (previously
installed) CRAY C92 supercomputer is best demonstrated by
the rapidly increasing demand for access and the decision to
upgrade to the larger and more expandable CRAY C94 system,"
said Michael Heib, manager of high-performance computing at
dSH. 

"Debis Systemhaus is one of the largest IT services companies
in Europe, with about $1.7 billion DM revenue and 6,250
employees.  Cray Research is pleased to provide the
high-performance computing resources to debis Systemhaus
customers in their effort to design new products and develop
new manufacturing processes," said John Carlson, chairman and
chief executive officer.  

There are 511 Cray Research systems installed worldwide, of
which 44 are in the automotive industry and 56 are dedicated
to aerospace research, design and engineering. 

Cray Research, Inc. provides leading supercomputing tools to
help solve customers' most challenging problems.
