True North ROSS Simulation & Benchmark
--------------------------------------
This is the current version of the NeMo neuromorphic hardware simulation, running on top of ROSS.
Currently it is under significant development.
Documentation will be available through the WIKI,
[github web page](http://markplagge.github.io/tnt_benchmark/) and through the official web site for the project.
# *NeMo*: A Generic Neuromorphic Hardware Simulation Model built on top of ROSS

Since stand-alone documentation will not be complete for some time,
please check the doxygen generated code for information on the current status and structure of the model.

Doxygen generated documentation can be found at [this location.](http://markplagge.github.io/tnt_benchmark/doc_html/index.html)
*NeMo* is a simulation model designed to allow experimentation with different neuromorphic hardware. Built on top of ROSS, *NeMo* features excellent scalability across HPC clusters. *NeMo* is targeted at current neuromorphic hardware designs, and as such currently simulates spiking neural networks in a grid layout, similar to the [IBM TrueNorth Processor](http://science.sciencemag.org/content/345/6197/668.short).

Currently, *NeMo* is in a state of development. The latest working version of NeMo (0.1.0) is available in the branch. The latest master version is a new implementation that will feature improved memory performance along with high performance I/O. The next release will feature more common spiking neural network

> Written with [StackEdit](https://stackedit.io/).
Benchmarks and results of the first edition of *NeMo* is available at the [ACM Digital Library](http://doi.acm.org/10.1145/2901378.2901392).


Version 0.1.0 supports generating probabilistic networks for benchmarking purposes. It also only supports the IBM TrueNorth neuron specification, [available here](http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpls/abs_all.jsp?arnumber=6707077&tag=1).
