Science in the Browser
summary
A web app orchestrates real-time cloud simulation of compartmental neuron models (Hodgkin–Huxley style equations) and renders them with 3D WebGL visualization so voltage and conductance density color maps update over time. Data files come from NeuroMorpho text traces (points with XYZ and radius), simulations run as C++ binaries inside Docker containers on Cloud Foundry/Bluemix, outputs land in object storage, and interactive D3 graphs and selectable compartments let users see spikes and verify the system actually produces expected action potentials.
