Detailed Description

The user can choose from a set of primitive pre-defined connection topologies, or he can implement a topology of their choice by using a callback mechanism. In the callback mechanism, the simulator calls a method on a user-defined class in order to determine whether a connection should be made or not. The user simply needs to define a method that specifies whether a connection should be made between a pre-synaptic neuron and a post-synaptic neuron, and the simulator will automatically call the method for all possible pre- and post-synaptic pairs. The user can then specify the connection's delay, initial weight, maximum weight, and whether or not it is plastic.
