Re: Driving synaptic event using vecStim

I tried to introduce "bbcore_write" and "bbcore_read" from netstim.mod into our vecstim.mod, but got some errors when compiling the mechanism file with CoreNEURON. The following shows modified code, did I do anything wrong? Thanks! NEURON { THREADSAFE ARTIFICIAL_CELL VecStim BBCO...

Use import3D_swc_read to read the morphology from swc file

Dear all I have some problems while using import3D_swc_read() to read swc file. I notice that there are more than 9000 3D points in swc file, but when I load this swc file into NEURON, it shows that this model contains only 1974 segments. I guess some 3D points in swc are merged when I use import3D_...

Re: Numerical methods in NEURON

Thank you, I'm more clear now. I see that in "nrn_fixed_step_thread" function, mainly three steps are done: 1) setup_tree_matrix 2) solve the tree matrix 3) update. So step 1) is to setup the matrix ( I - dt * f ( y (t+dt),t)), step 2) is to get the inverse of matrix, is that true? If it's...

Re: Numerical methods in NEURON

Thank you for replying. I watched the source code of NEURON, and I found that when NEURON computes the ion channels (e.g. hh.c), there are two statements: NODERHS(_nd) -= _rhs; NODED(_nd) += _g; so I think the matrix represent the conductance and rhs represent current. When current is computed by i=...

Numerical methods in NEURON

Dear all I am reading the NEURON book and try to understand the numerical methods in NEURON. In my understanding, when NEURON integrate one step, it first setup a matrix GV=I, where G is the Hines matrix representing the conductance, I is the current vector (including axial current, injected current...

A multi-gpu version of CoreNEURON

We have optimized the previous single GPU version of CoreNEURON and extended it to multi-GPU version, which can be downloaded at https://github.com/pkuzyc/Multi-GPU-CoreNeuron . The current version can work on single GPU server or GPU cluster. We have tested the sample model enclosed in the original...

Re: How to build network model for coreNeuron 

Hello, is coreNeuron able to use two or more GPUs? I have tried to use two threads to run ringtest and it generate two network files after nrnbbcore_write(). However, when I use two threads to run this model by coreNeuron, only one GPU is used. Could you please tell me is coreNeuron able to use mult...

Re: How to build network model for coreNeuron 

I built a stimulus model by NMODL and I want to run simulation on coreNeuron. It run well on CPU but cannot run on GPU. I found the reason is that I defined all the variables in PARAMETER block. After I move two variables into ASSIGNED block, it can run on GPU. Could you please tell me why it happen...

Re: Some errors when I run ringtest.py

The Neuron I use is downloaded from github, and the version is 7.5, not 7.4. I compile it from source. It shows the version information like that because the Neuron on github doesn't have the file "nrnversion.h", I copied nrnversion.h from an already installed neuron.

Re: How to build network model for coreNeuron 

Thank you so much, I can successfully use coreNeuron on my machine with your patient help. I have another question. Could you please tell me how can I set the stim for a cell when I do simulation on coreNeuron?
