The synaptic connection between cells is modeled by a synaptic current I syn . The overall strength of a connection is represented by a single synaptic weight parameter and a delay parameter represents all delays between cells. We assume that there is no significant inhibition in the network. A pseudo-random generator was used to choose connections for each cell. This produced a network with no predefined structure of circuits.
All connections have equal strength and delay.
Individual cells and synapses have properties based on physiologic data. The membrane potentials for selected cells and histograms of generated action potentials for all cells were recorded.
