Neural simulators typically fall into one of two categories:
On the one hand there are microscopic scale simulators like NEST, Neuron, and Brain, which simulate dynamics and interaction between individual neurons (or neuron compartments) and neuron networks.
On the other hand there are larger-scale simulators, like TVB, that use so-called neural mass or neural field models, whic
