Abstract. We present a model
that reproduces spiking and bursting behavior of known types of cortical
neurons. The model combines the biologically plausibility of Hodgkin-Huxley-type
dynamics and the computational efficiency of integrate-and-fire neurons. Using
this model, one can simulate tens of thousands of spiking cortical neurons in
real time (1 ms resolution) using a desktop PC.
