Description

CxSystem is a cerebral cortex simulation framework, which operates on personal computers. We have tested the simulation software with a simplified version of a comprehensive cortical microcircuit model, which is available as configuration file. The CxSystem aims at easy testing and buildup of diverse models at single cell resolution. Implemented on the top of the Python-based Brian2 simulator, CxSystem supports the main goal of Brian, i.e. minimizing development time, by providing the user with a simplified interface. The preliminary version of this software has been developed at Aalto University 2012-2015, and the full version at the University of Helsinki 2013-2017.
