Release 2.0 — NEMSIM-RT: A real-time distributed spiking neural network simulator

Abstract

NESIM-RT is a specialized tool designed for simulating neuromorphic systems. In this new release we extend its capabilities to include state-of-the art models like the AdexLIF and Izhikevich, and to incorporate dynamic synaptic mechanisms such as Spike-Timing Dependent Plasticity (STDP). With these new features, researchers can now observe in real-time how different parameters influence these models and learning rules, thereby gaining deeper insights into neuronal function and network dynamics.
