Forschungszentrum Jülich, JSC, Simulation and Data Lab Neuroscience Thema: "Development and Evaluation of Architecture Concepts for a System-on-Chip Based Neuromorphic Compute Node for Accelerated and Reproducible Simulations of Spiking Neural Networks in Neuroscience" Abstract: Despite the great strides neuroscience has made in recent decades, the underlying principles of brain function remain largely unknown. Advancing the field strongly depends on the ability to study large-scale neural networks and perform complex simulations. Simulations in hyper-real time are of high interest here, as they would enable both comprehensive parameter scans and the study of slow processes such as learning and long-term memory. Recent developments in FPGA System-on-Chip technology promise significant performance improvements. Acceleration factors in the order of 100 become within reach, even for the simulation of large-scale spiking neural networks.
