Detailed Description

Action (some affection to an entity)

Class taction is a abstract base class of "changing something", such as pulse arrival etc. Event is an instance of an action, represented by a pair of time and action. When simulation time reaches the event time, the scheduler triggers the event; the corresponding action is "activated" to perform the change. E.g. when a pulse arrival is activated, the potential of the destination neuron is changed.

Punnets adopts a distributed queue model, in which every action has a corresponding "local queue".
