The INCF has engaged in the development of software that allows large scale neuron simulators to communicate during runtime. An RFC – Request For Comments – document is now available and open for comments on the proposed design and prototype specifications. MUSIC (Multi-Simulation Coordinator) is a project under the INCF Program on Large-Scale Modeling of the Nervous System.
The Institute of Cognitive Science at the University of Colorado, Boulder is
seeking applications for an experienced computer support specialist for
system administration and programming related to neuroimaging (fMRI, ERP) and
computational modeling work within the Institute. This person will help
purchase and manage a large new computer cluster (and Mac & Linux desktop
machines connected to it) for neuroimaging data analysis and neural network
simulations, and write scripts and programs needed for these tasks.
Brian is a new simulator for spiking neural networks available on almost all platforms. The motivation for this project is that a simulator should not only save the time of processors, but also the time of scientists. Brian is easy to learn and use, highly flexible and easily extensible.
1 May 2008—Anyone familiar with electronics knows the trinity of fundamental components: the resistor, the capacitor, and the inductor. In 1971, a University of California, Berkeley, engineer predicted that there should be a fourth element: a memory resistor, or memristor. But no one knew how to build one. Now, 37 years later, electronics have finally gotten small enough to reveal the secrets of that fourth element. The memristor, Hewlett-Packard researchers revealed today in the journal Nature, had been hiding in plain sight all along—within the electrical characteristics of certain nanoscale devices. They think the new element could pave the way for applications both near- and far-term, from nonvolatile RAM to realistic neural networks.
