WARSAW UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY IS FIRST IN
POLAND TO ORDER CRAY SUPERSERVER SYSTEM

EAGAN, Minn., March 7, 1995 -- The Warsaw University of
Technology (Politechnika Warszawska) is the first organization
in Poland to order a CRAY SUPERSERVER 6400 (CS6400)
system, Cray Research, Inc. (NYSE: CYR) announced today.

A CS6400 system was installed this quarter at the university,
where it will be used for scientific engineering computations
in fields including chemistry, aeronautics, electronics,
informatics and telecommunication.  Terms were not disclosed.

"We chose the Cray Research superserver because of its fast
data interchange between processors, memory and input-
output, which are important for our parallel computation
algorithms," said Dr. Andrzej Wierzbicki, professor at the
Warsaw University of Technology and chairman of the Research
Council of the Polish Wide-Area Scientific Computer Network
(NASK).  "Another advantage of the CS6400 system is its
compatibility with Sun workstations, which are commonly used
in university research."

The Warsaw University of Technology will collaborate closely
with the Interdisciplinary Center for Modeling at the
University of Warsaw, added Wierzbicki.  "We fully expect the
CS6400 system to be an essential tool for scalar parallel
computing not only at our own university, but at other
scientific institutions in Warsaw and Poland," he said.

"Cray Research is pleased that a prestigious institution such
as the Warsaw University of Technology is supporting its
scientific research with a Cray Research superserver system,"
said Robert H. Ewald, Cray Research president and chief
operating officer.

The CS6400 system, which began shipping in early 1994, is
available with up to 64 SuperSPARC Plus processors, 16 billion
bytes (gigabytes) of central memory and seven trillion bytes
(terabytes) of on-line storage.  The system runs the Solaris
operating environment with Cray enhancements, including for
parallelization using up to 64 processors.

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