The Norns - Neural Network Studio is a software package for designing, simulation and analyzing networks of spiking neurons. It consists of three parts: 1. "Urd": a Matlab frontend with high-level functions for quickly defining networks 2. "Verdandi": an optimized C++ simulation environment which runs the simulation defined by Urd 3. "Skuld": an advanced Matlab graphical user interface (GUI) for visual inspection of simulated data.

The files Urd01.m and Urd02.m in the top level folder reproduce
figures from the paper. The Norns folder contain a universal
simulation environment and documentation for Norns, designed and
developed by Sid Visser.

Windows users will need to compile the c++ files in
Norns\VerdandiLite1_1\VerdandiLite_CPP using the makefile. This is
only necessary for the first time.
