Fully-Asynchronous Fully-Implicit Variable-Order Variable-Timestep Simulation of Neural Networks

Bruno Magalhães, Michael Hines, Thomas Sterling +1

State-of-the-art simulations of detailed neural models follow the Bulk Synchronous Parallel execution model. Execution is divided in equidistant communication intervals, equivalent…

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…
