 Among the many ongoing research projects at the University of Nevada, Reno, one has been the development of a biologically realistic brain simulator called the NeoCortical Simulator (NCS). As NCS has evolved, it has become desirable to have other applications interact with the simulated brain in order to perform a greater range of experiments. The Brain Communication Server (BCS) allows separate applications to exchange data with NCS. This creates an interactive system where information goes into NCS as stimulus to affect the network of simulated neurons and a response returns from NCS to indicate the reactions generated within the simulation. By using BCS as a bridge to NCS, a variety of applications may be developed to work with the simulator to achieve greater experimentation results and learning.
