Hi Anh,

 

You almost got it right: update() is called once per minimal delay interval. The details are explained in this paper:

Efficient parallel simulation of large-scale neuronal networks on clusters of multiprocessor computers.

I think I get it now. Is update() called for each neuron every timestep, rather than once for the entire duration of the simulation?
