| | Cray Inc. - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Cray Research was founded in 1972 by computer designer Seymour Cray. |  | | At first Cray Research pooh-poohed such approaches, complaining that developing software to effectively use the machines was difficult—which was true in the era of the ILLIAC IV, but becoming less true by the day. |  | | Seymour Cray worked there on the Cray-3 project, the first attempt at major use of gallium arsenide (GaAs) semiconductors in computing. |

| | Seymour Cray - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Cray quickly came to be regarded as an expert on digital computer technology, especially following his design work on the ERA 1103, the first commercially successful scientific computer. |  | | Cray set up a new company, SRC Computers, Inc., and started the design of his own massively parallel machine. |  | | Cray had always resisted the massively parallel solution to high-speed computing, offering a variety of reasons that it would never work as well as one very fast machine. |

| | Tribute to Seymour Cray |
 | | When he started Cray Research in 1972, he shelved the 8600 design primarily because at that time he felt that the software issues were too great for the industry to handle and concluded that greater performance could be achieved in a uniprocessor by implementing vector capabilities. |  | | Once when told that Apple Computer bought a CRAY to simulate their next Apple computer design, Seymour remarked, "Funny, I am using an Apple to simulate the CRAY-3." His selection of people for his projects also reflected fundamentals. |  | | When he had to close the doors on Cray Computer Corporation in 1994, he immediately began to evaluate options available to build high performance systems out of commodity parts. |

| | The Cray Research Inc. Cray J90-series, T90 series. |
 | | Formerly, Cray-specific floating-point arithmetic was employed which could give rise to problems in data exchange with other systems and in different computational results due to the difference in arithmetic. |  | | Cray Research Inc. (CRI) has been taken over by Silicon Graphics (SGI) but for the next few years Cray will maintain separate product lines from SGI. |  | | This is regrettably less than was available in its predecessors, Y-MP EL machines, and it might adversely affect the efficiency. |
