Constructor & Destructor Documentation

nest::iaf_psc_alpha_presc::iaf_psc_alpha_presc ( )

Basic constructor.

This constructor should only be used by GenericModel to create model prototype instances.

References recordablesMap_.

nest::iaf_psc_alpha_presc::iaf_psc_alpha_presc ( const iaf_psc_alpha_presc & n )

Copy constructor.

GenericModel::allocate_() uses the copy constructor to clone actual model instances from the prototype instance.

Note: The copy constructor MUST NOT be used to create nodes based on nodes that have been placed in the network.

void nest::iaf_psc_alpha_presc::handle ( SpikeEvent & e )

virtual

Handle incoming spike events.

Default implementation of event handlers just throws an UnexpectedEvent exception.

Parameters

thrd	Id of the calling thread.
e	Event object.

This handler has to be implemented if a Node should accept spike events.

See also: class SpikeEvent; class UnexpectedEvent

Exceptions

UnexpectedEvent This is the default event to throw.

port nest::iaf_psc_alpha_presc::handles_test_event	(	SpikeEvent &	,
		rport	receptor_type
	)

inlinevirtual

Check if the node can handle a particular event and receptor type.

This function is called upon connection setup by send_test_event().

handles_test_event() function is used to verify that the receiver can handle the event. It can also be used by the receiver to return information to the sender in form of the returned port. The default implementation throws an IllegalConnection exception. Any node class should define handles_test_event() functions for all those event types it can handle.

See Kunkel et al, Front Neuroinform 8:78 (2014), Sec 3.

Note: The semantics of all other handles_test_event() functions is identical.

void nest::iaf_psc_alpha_presc::init_buffers_ ( )

privatevirtual

Private function to initialize the buffers of a node.

This function, which must be overloaded by all derived classes, provides the implementation for initializing the buffers of a node.

See also: Node::init_buffers()

Implements nest::Node.

void nest::iaf_psc_alpha_presc::init_state_ ( const Node & )

privatevirtual

Private function to initialize the state of a node to model defaults.

This function, which must be overloaded by all derived classes, provides the implementation for initializing the state of a node to the model defaults; the state is the set of observable dynamic variables.

Parameters

Reference to model prototype object.

See also: Node::init_state()

Note: To provide a reasonable behavior during the transition to the new scheme, init_state_() has a default implementation calling init_dynamic_state_().

Implements nest::Node.

References S_.

bool nest::iaf_psc_alpha_presc::is_off_grid ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Returns true if the node if it sends/receives -grid events This is used to discriminate between different types of nodes, when adding new nodes to the network.

Reimplemented from nest::Node.

port nest::iaf_psc_alpha_presc::send_test_event	(	Node &	receiving_node,
		rport	receptor_type,
		synindex	syn_id,
		bool	dummy_target
	)

inlinevirtual

Send an event to the receiving_node passed as an argument.

Default implementation of check_connection just throws UnexpectedEvent.

This is required during the connection handshaking to test, if the receiving_node can handle the event type and receptor_type sent by the source node.

If dummy_target is true, this indicates that receiving_node is derived from ConnTestDummyNodeBase and used in the first call to send_test_event(). This can be ignored in most cases, but Nodes sending DS*Events to their own event hooks and then *Events to their proper targets must send DS*Events when called with the dummy target, and *Events when called with the real target, see #478.

void nest::iaf_psc_alpha_presc::update	(	Time const &	origin,
		const long_t	from,
		const long_t	to
	)

privatevirtual

Time Evolution Operator.

update() promotes the state of the neuron from origin+from to origin+to. It does so in steps of the resolution h. Within each step, time is advanced from event to event, as retrieved from the spike queue.

Return from refractoriness is handled as a special event in the queue, which is marked by a weight that is GSL_NAN. This greatly simplifies the code.

For steps, during which no events occur, the precomputed propagator matrix is used. For other steps, the propagator matrix is computed as needed.

While the neuron is refractory, membrane potential (y3_) is clamped to U_reset_.

Implements nest::Node.
