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.

# gnuplot file to produce a figure similar to Figure 8
# in Davison A.P., Feng J. and Brown D. (2003) J. Neurophysiol.

# Note that the figure produced will not match exactly the
# published figure due to differences in the sequence of
# random numbers used to set up the network.

# gnuplot is available from http://www.gnuplot.info
