Re: Issue Installing Neuron in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

Thanks JEGHC20 for posting those installation instructions. Really useful! Just to add to the potential pitfalls: > The above installation procedure failed (gave errors) when the system already had Anaconda. some of the errors were: collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status Makefile:716: recipe for...

Re: A ring network with multithreading

Thanks! That works now (on Ubuntu). pc.nhost gives what is expected and also an improvement in the performance. How should I go about trying to do this on Windows? I read a few of the other posts here (suggesting commands involving bash, nrniv etc... https://www.neuron.yale.edu/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f...

Re: A ring network with multithreading

I generally run NEURON on Windows 7, and so its mostly by just double-clicking the hoc file. While checking on Ubuntu the command was: nrngui init.hoc In both cases I got pc.nhost = 1. I suppose one does not really require the GUI when handling a simulation over multiple hosts, but I am not too fami...

Re: A ring network with multithreading

I actually had read an earlier post by you on the forum regarding this and so did the 'Refresh' several times and reported the most frequent value. I suppose it is do with the OS as you suggested. Any suggestion regarding the earlier question: A part of the confusion stems from the fact that on my d...

Re: A ring network with multithreading

I may have some leads (and further issues) on the matter... My processor, Intel® Core™ i7-2600K, has 4 cores and supports 8 threads with hyper-threading. So the OS considers it as 8 CPUs (as verified in the 'Task Manager' in Windows and 'About This Computer' in Ubuntu. Further, on running a network ...

Re: A ring network with multithreading

I did that and found something interesting: > On Windows 7 64-bit with NEURON v7.4 64-bit, I got "4 useful processors" > On Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit with NEURON v7.4 64-bit, I got "8 useful processors" My desktop has dual OS, and so the above was observed on exactly the same hardware....

Re: A ring network with multithreading

Thanks, thats good to know. Given this sccenario: Running a network model having 16 cells on the NeuroScience Gateway (NSG), with 2 nodes and 4 cores/node... giving me a total of 8 processors (nhost=8), with the cells distributed equally 2 per host. How could I make use of multi-threading here? As a...

Re: A ring network with multithreading

Came across this post and this bit interested me: Current versions of NEURON (including any of the alpha installers) can run multithreaded simulations of a model on a single host, or single threaded simulations of a model that is distributed over multiple hosts. It cannot run multithreaded simulatio...

Re: single resistor as gap junction and connecting cells

Thanks Michael, Ted for guiding me towards the solution! Using the LCB to generate the class really helped matters. I will elaborate a bit for the benefit of any future readers: On using the LCB to create the class (as described above), we get a HOC file having a procedure named 'refill()' which bas...

Re: single resistor as gap junction and connecting cells

Any thoughts on the above?
Note: I plan to connect the last and first internal nodes of adjacent sections (not the terminal nodes) and hence requiring 'gmat' in S/cm2 and not uS.

Re: Regarding connection to ground under extracellular

Yes that indeed happens. If I change Ra/Re = 1, then identical responses are observed at both ends, and AP's are subsequently generated at the other segments from both ends. Viewing the circuit as a whole, I suppose it is natural to observe such a response. The two ends turn out to be symmetric, as ...

Taking the above post a few steps further... I am trying to model two cells (for now, later more) such that their extracellular spaces are connected (ephaptic): http://s2.postimg.org/ju633bntl/image.png I plan to implement the extracellular link (Rlink) between two extracellular nodes in different s...
