Scientific Programme
The main goal of the workshop is to get people together who are interested in Code Generation in Computational Neuroscience.
On the final day, we will coordinate the writing of a review paper summarizing the current state of the art and used technologies in the field.
Day 1 December 7
The first day will introduce simulators and tools that are commonly used in Computational Neuroscience and employ code generation techniques.
