Overview
NeuReality, based in Caesarea, Israel, is an innovative AI infrastructure company founded in 2019 by a team of experienced system engineers. The company develops purpose-built system solutions that eliminate bottlenecks and maximize GPU utilization for next-generation data centers.
With a deep technical expertise and ambitious team, the company has quickly become a significant player in the AI market.
Its flagship products - the NR1® AI-CPU, which unlocks full GPU performance for inference, and the NR2 AI-SuperNIC, which delivers purpose-built networking and connectivity for scalable AI inference and training - work together to enable smarter, faster, and more efficient AI infrastructure, turning innovation into measurable business impact
Challenges
- Scalability: NeuReality wanted to optimize regression turnaround time TAT for thousands of tests to facilitate resource scaling.
- Corner case bugs: Early detection of bugs is crucial, as missed issues can lead to costly re-spins.
- Verification quality: Eliminate redundancies in the regressions and target new design areas to exercise.
Solution
To address these challenges, NeuReality adopted Synopsys VCS® Intelligent Constraint Optimization (ICO) and VSO.ai™ (Verification Space Optimization). Key features of the solution included:
- High-Quality Stimuli Generation: Bias input stimuli to diversify constraint random stimuli creation, improving the likelihood of hitting corner cases and uncovering new bugs.
- Regression Turnaround Time (TAT): Prioritize the high ROI tests initially to achieve the same coverage in shorter regression cycles.
- Seamless Integration: Integrates into existing VCS or VC Execution Manager verification environment.
- Improved HW Utilization: Maximizing coverage within the available compute budget.
Results
Through the implementation of VCS and VSO.ai, NeuReality achieved remarkable results:
- Regression TAT Optimization: Achieved the same coverage with 2X fewer tests.
- Early Testbench Stabilization: Uncovered a missing constraint on the address bus in the testbench.
- Design Bug Detection: In a directed scenario, sequencing three parallel events exposed a corner case unaccounted for which needed an RTL fix.
NeuReality’s collaboration with Synopsys on deployment of these advanced technologies led to a more efficient, scalable, and high-quality verification framework. This success underscores the impact of advanced AI/ML technologies in driving innovation and operational excellence in software development.
