X-Message-Number: 4827 From: Joseph Strout <> Newsgroups: bionet.neuroscience,comp.ai,comp.ai.neural-nets,sci.cryonics Subject: Neuron Emulation List (ANNOUNCEMENT) Date: Thu, 24 Aug 1995 08:13:03 -0700 Message-ID: <> ANNOUNCEMENT: Neuron Emulation List ----------------------------------- This message is to announce the opening of a new mailing list. Its purpose is the discussion of "neuron emulation" -- that is, the endeavor to recreate (in hardware or software) the functional properties of a particular neuron or small network of neurons. This is in contrast to the more common neural model, which recreates the general properties of an entire class of cells. Upon subscribing to the list, you will receive two copies of a document which is now out of date. The revised versions will probably not be posted until next week, due to personnel difficulties [read: postmaster on vacation]. However, the latest versions can be obtained from the Web site (below). Also at the web site is an archive of previous messages; the list has been open privately for a few weeks while we worked out bugs with the listserver. It seems to be running smoothly now, and as interest has been spreading, it seemed prudent to make the formal announcement. The NEL Web Site can be accessed through the following URL: http://sdcc3.ucsd.edu/~jstrout/nel/ Full instructions on using the list server, as well as etiquette guidelines and a preliminary FAQ, are available at that site. If you do not have access to the World Wide Web, contact me directly and I will forward you the relevant files. ,------------------------------------------------------------------. | Joseph J.
