Integrated Reasoning
Faster processors for solving NP-complete problems
About Integrated Reasoning
Where is Integrated Reasoning headquartered?
Integrated Reasoning is headquartered in San Diego, CA.
What does Integrated Reasoning do?
Faster processors for solving NP-complete problems
What problem does Integrated Reasoning solve?
NP-complete combinatorial optimization problems are computationally slow and create bottlenecks that affect nearly every business.
What's Integrated Reasoning's solution?
They design custom high-throughput processors (IRX-Honu) with a microarchitecture built specifically for the memory access patterns and instruction sequences of combinatorial optimization.
What makes Integrated Reasoning different?
IRX-Honu is described as the world's first microarchitecture built expressly to remove combinatorial-optimization bottlenecks, and it solves the decision formulation of the subset sum problem 7,000x faster than state-of-the-art software.
What makes Integrated Reasoning notable?
Founded by David Cox and backed by Y Combinator; the company is building specialized processors tailored to Karp's 21 NP-complete problems.
