The NEURON simulation environment has been extended to support parallel network simulations. The performance of three published network models with very different spike patterns exhibits superlinear speedup on Beowulf clusters.

Note: a diagram of the model is one of the figures of the paper.
I cannot say at the moment how many states the model has because some
mod files cannot be used with
the variable time step method.
