Hi Michael. With your advice, I made the following point process: NEURON { POINT_PROCESS bench RANGE first, frequency, rate } PARAMETER { frequency = 100 (Hz) rate = 1 : 1-> realtime, 0.1 -> 10x faster than realtime first = 0 (ms) } VERBATIM #include <time.h> ENDVERBATIM ASSIGNED { spike_interval } ...

Thanks for the feedback.

Because there are no numeric stability concerns, could we force the cell to take large dt steps, which would minimise the impact of overheads that are outside the wait call?

I would like to make a special "artificial cell" for benchmarking the spike/event delivery subsystems in simulators. The artificial cell takes two parameters: 1. spike frequency: used to generate a poisson sequence of spikes 2. integration speed: describes how quickly a cell is updated rel...

Hello Michael, I did some more digging on the NIST site, and the values of these constants has changed over time.

I have a question about the values used for the gas constant R and Faraday's constant in NEURON. Specifically, NEURON uses what appear to be incorrect values: -------------------------------- R Faraday ------------------------------------------- correct 8.3144598(48) 96485.33289(59) neuron 8.3134 96...
