The NEURON Simulation Environment
The moment-to-moment processing of information by the nervous system involves the propagation and interaction of electrical and chemical signals that are distributed in space and time. Biologically realistic modeling is needed to test hypotheses about the mechanisms that govern these signals and how nervous system function emerges from the operation of these mechanisms. The NEURON simulation pr...
متن کاملDiscrete event simulation in the NEURON environment
The response of many types of integrate and fire cells to synaptic input can be computed analytically and their threshold crossing either computed analytically or approximated to high accuracy via Newton approximation. The NEURON simulation environment simulates networks of such artificial spiking neurons using discrete event simulation techniques in which computations are performed only when e...
متن کاملThe Neuron Simulation Program
This article describes a nerve simulation program, called \NEURON", developed in collaboration with John W. Moore at Duke University. NEURON was designed for two kinds of problems: 1) where cable properties of cells play an important role, possibly including extracellular potential close to the membrane, and 2) where cell membrane properties are complex, involvingmany ion-speci c channels and i...
متن کاملOptimizing NEURON Simulation Environment Using Remote Memory Access with Recursive Doubling on Distributed Memory Systems
Increase in complexity of neuronal network models escalated the efforts to make NEURON simulation environment efficient. The computational neuroscientists divided the equations into subnets amongst multiple processors for achieving better hardware performance. On parallel machines for neuronal networks, interprocessor spikes exchange consumes large section of overall simulation time. In NEURON ...
متن کاملFramework for Interactive Million-Neuron Simulation Running title: Interactive Million Neuron Simulation
Large simulations have become increasingly complex in many fields, tending to incorporate scaledependent modeling and algorithms and wide-ranging physical influences. This scale of simulation sophistication has not yet been matched in neuroscience. In this paper we describe a framework aimed at enabling natural interaction with complex simulations: their configuration, initial conditions, monit...
