Efficient Distributed Transposition Of Large-Scale Multigraphs And High-Cardinality Sparse Matrices

Bruno Magalhaes, Felix Schürmann

Graph-based representations underlie a wide range of scientific problems. Graph connectivity is typically represented as a sparse matrix in the Compressed Sparse Row format. Large-…

The scientific case for brain simulations

Gaute T. Einevoll, Alain Destexhe, Markus Diesmann +7

A key element of the European Union's Human Brain Project (HBP) and other large-scale brain research projects is simulation of large-scale model networks of neurons. Here we argue…

CoreNEURON : An Optimized Compute Engine for the NEURON Simulator

Pramod Kumbhar, Michael Hines, Jeremy Fouriaux +4

The NEURON simulator has been developed over the past three decades and is widely used by neuroscientists to model the electrical activity of neuronal networks. Large network simul…
