Today marks the 50th anniversary of the founding of Cray! Cray Research was founded in Chippewa Falls, WI, on April 6, 1972. HPE Cray is the latest instantiation of the company founded by the father of #supercomputing, Seymour Cray.

Frontier, the supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, was declared to be the first to demonstrate performance of one quintillion operations per second. nyti.ms/3N7cX7A
