Accession:153574
A detailed network model of the dual-layer dendro-dendritic inhibitory microcircuits in the rat olfactory bulb comprising compartmental mitral, granule and PG cells developed by Aditya Gilra, Upinder S. Bhalla (2015). All cell morphologies and network connections are in NeuroML v1.8.0. PG and granule cell channels and synapses are also in NeuroML v1.8.0. Mitral cell channels and synapses are in native python.

# These are the simulation parameters for testing recurrent and lateral inhibition on mitrals via granules
# Only 2 gloms, 2 mitral sisters per glom.

rc('path',simplify= False) # To ensure matplotlib connects points at expense of speed.

SIMDT = 5e-5 # seconds
## Correction factor for event-based vs graded synchans
## In event-based case, activation = weight/simdt while in graded case activation is used directly.
## Further, due to every sim point in graded case acting like an event, moose gives a convolved Gk which is much larger (say 1000 times) than the event based one.
## So I should correct for simdt and the activation weighted multiple events at every simdt.
#synchan_activation_correction = 1/SIMDT / 1000 # for SIMDT=1e-5
synchan_activation_correction = 1/SIMDT / 250 # for SIMDT=5e-5

PLOTDT = 5e-5 # seconds
# add SETTLETIME from stimuliConstants.py to the REALRUNTIME to get the simulation RUNTIME
REALRUNTIME = 1.0 # seconds - for active inhibition - stimulus only for 500ms

###### Somehow mpiexec doesn't like number of processes > 1000 and gives errors somewhere in the middle of the run while trying to send to the boss, after which boss decides the below:
## rank 0 in job 35  gulabjamun.ncbs.res.in_56625 caused collective abort of all ranks
############ So ensure that NUMAVG+1 < 1000
####### For a network rather than isolated mitral cell, even 500 processes make the cluster hang. Has worked only for 32 processes, didn't test inbetween yet.
##### Basically memory overflow problems - use less memory by using less data tables
NUMAVG = 8 # don't make NUMAVG higher than 200.
