Jul 28, 2017 · The CDC 7600 was the brainchild of Seymour Cray, who from the 1950s through the 1980s was the undisputed champion among supercomputer designers. Working from a rural laboratory in his hometown of Chippewa Falls, Wisc., Cray had also designed the 7600’s predecessor, the CDC 6600.
Oct 6, 1996 · Seymour R. Cray, a computer industry pioneer and the father of the supercomputer, died yesterday at a hospital near his home in Colorado Springs. He was 71 and had been in the hospital since...
In 1958, supercomputer pioneer Seymour Cray experimented with the “Little Character,” a 6-bit prototype for the modular packaging and logic approach he envisioned for CDC’s first computers. The results were encouraging, and Control Data adopted those techniques in the successful 48-bit CDC 1604 in 1959.
