Transactions on Computers Media Center

Our volunteers share with the wider community their views and experiences on a variety of topics. The volunteers can range from associate editors to authors, reviewers or members from the research community at large. The interviews are intended to cover a wide spectrum of topics that are relevant to our community. These topics can be in the form of "shared experiences" and "lessons learned" or highlighting a new technological or theoretical breakthrough. We hope that members of the community will actively participate in making this new feature a great success. For information on submitting multimedia content, please click here.

Overview of the SpiNNaker system architecture

by Steve B. Furber, David R. Lester, Luis A. Plana, Jim D. Garside, Eustace Painkras, Steve Temple, Andrew D. Brown

 

Steve Furber introduces a paper, recently published in IEEE Transactions on Computers, that presents an overview of the architecture of the SpiNNaker massively-parallel neurocomputer. SpiNNaker was designed for brain-modelling applications, and will ultimately employ a million ARM processor cores to model up to a billion spiking neurons in biological real time.
