Neuron



Neurons are network objects (nobs) represented by a circle that has a bulge at one point. They can have one or more incoming connections and one output connection the axon. The axon originates from the bulge, the so-called Axon hillock. Incoming connections are dendrites that emanate from other neurons via various branches.

The dynamic beviour of neurons is determined by the potential progression in incomming connections and the triggering threshold which is identical for all neurons in the model. On every clock (currently 100 microseconds model time) the potentials of all incoming dendrites are summed up and compared to the triggering threshold. If the threshold is succeeded, the neuron "fires". An impulse with the amplitude „peak voltage“ is triggered and flows through the axon.
