Here you see how you can run a simulation:

For running this code, your system needs message passing interface (mpi) compiler on c++ (mpicxx) to be already installed on your machine.

1- Go to ./src folder and enter the below command
>> make

2- If the code compiled well, a file named "braimmu.exe" would be generated.

3- Run an example simulation using one of input scripts, in.run or in.cuda in ./example/ directory:
Note: number of cores should match the partitions specifications inside the input script
>> mpirun -np 4 ../src/braimmu.exe connectome conn.run

4- The brain atlases are used as initial conditions, and taken from multiple sources:

5- Enjoy!
