Recent code large language models have achieved remarkable progress on general programming tasks. Nevertheless, their performance degrades significantly in industrial scenarios that require reasoning about hardware semantics, specialized language constructs, and strict resource constraints. To address these challenges, we introduce InCoder-32B (Industrial-Coder-32B), the first 32B-parameter code foundation model unifying code intelligence across chip design, GPU kernel optimization, embedded systems, compiler optimization, and 3D modeling. By adopting an efficient architecture, we train InCoder-32B from scratch with general code pre-training, curated industrial code annealing, mid-training that progressively extends context from 8K to 128K tokens with synthetic industrial reasoning data, and post-training with execution-grounded verification. We conduct extensive evaluation on 14 mainstream general code benchmarks and 9 industrial benchmarks spanning 4 specialized domains. Results show InCoder-32B achieves highly competitive performance on general tasks while establishing strong open-source baselines across industrial domains.

The rapid advancement of code large language models (LLMs) has sparked significant research interest in systematically evaluating their code generation capabilities, yet existing benchmarks predominantly assess models at a single structural granularity and focus on limited programming languages, obscuring fine-grained capability variations across different code scopes and multilingual scenarios. We introduce M2G-Eval, a multi-granularity, multilingual framework for evaluating code generation in large language models (LLMs) across four levels: Class, Function, Block, and Line. Spanning 18 programming languages, M2G-Eval includes 17K+ training tasks and 1,286 human-annotated, contamination-controlled test instances. We develop M2G-Eval-Coder models by training Qwen3-8B with supervised fine-tuning and Group Relative Policy Optimization. Evaluating 30 models (28 state-of-the-art LLMs plus our two M2G-Eval-Coder variants) reveals three main findings: (1) an apparent difficulty hierarchy, with Line-level tasks easiest and Class-level most challenging; (2) widening performance gaps between full- and partial-granularity languages as task complexity increases; and (3) strong cross-language correlations, suggesting that models learn transferable programming concepts. M2G-Eval enables fine-grained diagnosis of code generation capabilities and highlights persistent challenges in synthesizing complex, long-form code.

Industrial software development across chip design, GPU optimization, and embedded systems lacks expert reasoning traces showing how engineers reason about hardware constraints and timing semantics. In this work, we propose InCoder-32B-Thinking, trained on the data from the Error-driven Chain-of-Thought (ECoT) synthesis framework with an industrial code world model (ICWM) to generate reasoning traces. Specifically, ECoT generates reasoning chains by synthesizing the thinking content from multi-turn dialogue with environmental error feedback, explicitly modeling the error-correction process. ICWM is trained on domain-specific execution traces from Verilog simulation, GPU profiling, etc., learns the causal dynamics of how code affects hardware behavior, and enables self-verification by predicting execution outcomes before actual compilation. All synthesized reasoning traces are validated through domain toolchains, creating training data matching the natural reasoning depth distribution of industrial tasks. Evaluation on 14 general (81.3% on LiveCodeBench v5) and 9 industrial benchmarks (84.0% in CAD-Coder and 38.0% on KernelBench) shows InCoder-32B-Thinking achieves top-tier open-source results across all domains.GPU Optimization

Large language models (LLMs) have fundamentally transformed automated software development by enabling direct translation of natural language descriptions into functional code, driving commercial adoption through tools like Github Copilot (Microsoft), Cursor (Anysphere), Trae (ByteDance), and Claude Code (Anthropic). While the field has evolved dramatically from rule-based systems to Transformer-based architectures, achieving performance improvements from single-digit to over 95\% success rates on benchmarks like HumanEval. In this work, we provide a comprehensive synthesis and practical guide (a series of analytic and probing experiments) about code LLMs, systematically examining the complete model life cycle from data curation to post-training through advanced prompting paradigms, code pre-training, supervised fine-tuning, reinforcement learning, and autonomous coding agents. We analyze the code capability of the general LLMs (GPT-4, Claude, LLaMA) and code-specialized LLMs (StarCoder, Code LLaMA, DeepSeek-Coder, and QwenCoder), critically examining the techniques, design decisions, and trade-offs. Further, we articulate the research-practice gap between academic research (e.g., benchmarks and tasks) and real-world deployment (e.g., software-related code tasks), including code correctness, security, contextual awareness of large codebases, and integration with development workflows, and map promising research directions to practical needs. Last, we conduct a series of experiments to provide a comprehensive analysis of code pre-training, supervised fine-tuning, and reinforcement learning, covering scaling law, framework selection, hyperparameter sensitivity, model architectures, and dataset comparisons.
