NATIONAL SUPERCOMPUTING RESEARCH CENTRE IN SINGAPORE
ORDERS A CRAY T90 SERIES SUPERCOMPUTER

TAIPEI, Taiwan, Sept. 18, 1995 -- The National Supercomputing
Research Centre (NSRC) in Singapore has ordered a CRAY T94
supercomputer that will be installed in Singapore later this
year, Cray Research, Inc. (NYSE:CYR) announced today at the
High-Performance Computing Conference-Asia held here this
week.  Cray officials said the order was received by ST
Computer Systems and Services Ltd., Cray's reseller in
Singapore for this business.  Once installed, this will be the
largest of the company's systems installed in South East Asia
and the third Cray supercomputer in Singapore, Cray said. 

NSRC will use the CRAY T94 supercomputer as a general-
purpose, national resource to support industry, academia,
research organizations, and government agencies.  Applications
targeted will include chemical process engineering, fluid
dynamics, structural analysis, physics, electronics and plastic
injection molding.

According to Dr. William Hale, director of the National
Supercomputing Research Centre, "The investment of this new
and powerful system will help us fuel industrial development,
encourage further R&D work and drive the use of high-
performance computing for a wide variety of industrial and
scientific endeavors in Singapore."

"We are pleased that Singapore's National Supercomputing
Research Centre has chosen our latest high-end supercomputer,
the CRAY T90, for its broad range of supercomputer
applications," said Robert Ewald, Cray Research's president
and chief operating officer.  "Singapore has made a
considerable investment in Cray technology and I am impressed
with the new, emerging areas of application that the Centre
has slated for this system."

Peter Boek, general manager of Cray Research in Australia,
South East Asia and India, said "Cray appreciates that the
Singapore Government -- through the National Science and
Technology Board, National University of Singapore and NSRC --
placed faith in Cray's technology for this important new phase
in supercomputing in Singapore.  With the CRAY T94, Singapore
has established itself as the premier high-performance
computing facility in South East Asia."

The new CRAY T90 Series of systems are Cray Research's
latest high-end supercomputers that are offered with up to 32
processors.  The Singapore Centre ordered a four-processor
system with two processors and 128 million words of central
memory. 

Cray Research provides the leading supercomputing tools and
services to help solve customers' most challenging problems.
