AbstractThe K computer, RIKEN and Fujitsu are now developing, has twice been awarded the title of the world's fastest computer by the TOP500 project. Throughout development, lots of bugs were detected, but these bugs were fixed before manufacturing. This was achieved by our advanced verification methodologies.

This paper introduces these advanced verification and production methodologies.
