Abstract

This paper presents a method for the solution of equations for membrane ionic currents and the cable equation which describes the interaction of various segments in a compartmentalized model of the neuron. The method embodies some innovations which would speed calculation of propagating action potentials in any computing environment, but were specifically designed to permit the use of a relatively inexpensive array processor. The array processor produces an improvement in speed of calculation which permits exploration of a wider range of neuronal phenomena than has been previously feasible.
