Science in the Browser – Orchestrating and Visualising Neural Simulations

Talkat Reject.JS 2015 · on Thursday, 2015-09-24· [data-visualization, machine-learning]
slides:none on file

Claims a complete pipeline that lets the browser configure and visualise 3D neuron models with threejs and then orchestrate cloud-run C++ simulations inside Docker on IBM Bluemix/SoftLayer, storing outputs to object storage. Shows D3 graphs and live-coloured compartments, streams results as the job runs so observers can watch simulation state update in real time, and reminds that brains have ~86 billion neurons to motivate scale. The system demonstrably runs and returns live data.
