Supercomputers ready for use as discovery machines for neuroscience

Supercomputers ready for use as discovery machines for neuroscience

NEST is a widely used tool to simulate biological spiking neural networks. Here we explain theimprovements, guided by a mathematical model of memory consumption, that enable us to exploitfor the first time the computational power of the K supercomputer for neuroscience. Multi-threadedcomponents for...
