Dear HBP-NEST users!
// This mail only regards people involved in the Human Brain Project
(HBP). //
For making your usage of NEST more visible to the HBP internal
reporting, we would be happy to see you in the list of the so called
/component users/.
For this you just need to go to the NEST component page
https://plus.humanbrainproject.org/components/209/ and do *three clicks*:
1. click the green [edit] button
2. click [+me] at "Component User Group", and finally
3. click [Save] at the bottom of the page.
This ensures the continued support of many developers and helps to show
the multitude of research using NEST simulations, and is highly appreciated.
If you use or intend to use any number of the following specific NEST
features, please feel free to also add yourself there, to show your
appreciation to the respective developers:
* optimizations for simulations on high-performance computing platforms
https://plus.humanbrainproject.org/components/1666/ and
https://plus.humanbrainproject.org/components/1667/
* models with continuous dynamics / gap-junctions
https://plus.humanbrainproject.org/components/510/
* models with 3rd factor plasticity
https://plus.humanbrainproject.org/components/2696/
* the NEST modeling language (NESTML)
https://plus.humanbrainproject.org/components/2679/
* connection generation in very large networks
https://plus.humanbrainproject.org/components/2678/
There are many other related components that you may also want to add
yourself, like simulator-simulator interactions (e.g. 2693),
visualization (e.g. 2697), and many more. Please contact me if you feel
like you can't find something that you would like to "+me".
best,
Dennis
