virtual int LIFSpikingNeurons::AddGroup ( neuron_parameters_struct * group_params ) [virtual]

Determines the total number of neurons by which the simulation should increase. This is a virtual function to allow polymorphism in the methods of various SpikingNeuron implementations. Allocates memory as necessary for group size and indices storage.

Parameters:

group_params A neuron_parameters_struct instance describing a 2D neuron population size.

Returns:: The unique ID for the population which was requested for creation.

Reimplemented from SpikingNeurons.

virtual void LIFSpikingNeurons::allocate_device_pointers	(	int	maximum_axonal_delay_in_timesteps,
		bool	high_fidelity_spike_storage
	)		`[virtual]`

Exclusively for the allocation of device memory. This class requires allocation of d_current_injections only.

Parameters:

maximum_axonal_delay_in_timesteps	The length (in timesteps) of the largest axonal delay in the simulation. Unused in this class.
high_fidelity_spike_storage	A flag determining whether a bit mask based method is used to store spike times of neurons (ensure no spike transmission failure).

Reimplemented from SpikingNeurons.

virtual void LIFSpikingNeurons::copy_constants_to_device ( ) [virtual]

Unused in this class. Allows copying of static data related to neuron dynamics to the device.

Reimplemented from SpikingNeurons.
