SpiNet is a simulation tool for large and heterogeneous spiking networks. Neurons are modelled as integrate-and-fire units with dual exponential synaptic conductances. Complex network models can be easily built using the included tool NetBuilder.

A keyed instrument of music resembling a harpsichord, but smaller, with one string of brass or steel wire to each note, sounded by means of leather or quill plectrums or jacks. It was formerly much used.
