Communication Sparsity in Distributed Spiking Neural Network Simulations to Improve Scalability

In the last decade there has been a surge in the number of big science projects interested in achieving a comprehensive understanding of the functions of the brain, using Spiking Neuronal Network (SNN) simulations to aid discovery and experimentation. Such an approach increases the computational dem...
