Simulated Brain in a Super Computer

Blue Brain Image from Switzerland



In the microscopic, yet-uncharted circuitry of the cortex, Henry Markram is perhaps the most ambitious -- and our most promising -- frontiersman. Backed by the extraordinary power of the IBM Blue Gene supercomputing architecture, which can perform hundreds of trillions of calculations per second, he's using complex models to precisely simulate the neocortical column (and its tens of millions of neural connections) in 3D.

If the 3000 minutes that were spent watching this video were used to apply the GTD flowchart http://bit.ly/GTDflowchart2 and http://bit.ly/TWoBTP2 for permaculture logistics sustainabilty fair trade technology transfer immersive augmented reality ethics education working on the project so that none of the peices being put together in the tasks of the project were not repeated... teams of fifth graders could work out the free plan B 4.0 book online. i am at http://globalcide.livejournal.com and http://T4BP.com/Globalcide and http://TradeSkillsLLC.blogspot.com Matthew Lane Tripp at 1572 East Blackstock Rd. Moore SC 29369. The livejournal globalcide is a flyer you can set the maximum margins and grey font and size 9 font for a one page flyer. With book groups listed somewhere to torrents of the audiobooks and sheetfed scanners to make text files of all the needed books... so that it only takes a group of 5 people buying a copy of the book to cut off the spine and put through sheetfed scanner... and retired, elderly, and disabled can read books aloud to create free audiobooks to link the chapters to the wiki for each book and be able to see the sociology subject index link map overlay to each chapter of each book with the segmented audio immersive ethics augmented reality UI with the head tracking and VR gloves.

Ted your comments were creative and informative as well. Philosophy, science, math, theology, language all presented in a rich blog that creates and supports the ideas of the brain as an organ complex in nature but accessable and imaginable. I am fascinated by the idea of building a model of the brain using math and computers not to mention creativity.

You began with a mission that is powerful. Using your talents to study the brain to understand human behavior and provide a remedy for Peace, using the brain studies and simulations to illiminate animal testing, and especially to use the brain to aide in the assistance to over 2 billion people struggling with mental illnes. These are just a few example of what can be done with these studies. The combination of many sciences and the discipline of these studies in computer technology will bring many new discoveries. Being a student at Walden Univerisity your studies reinforce learning theories I am acquiring today. The metaphor of information processing being compared to a computer has been replaced by one with the picture of the mind expansion in this video. "It seems that we don't think the wasy computers do. People don't work=don't think in that "one thing leads to another automatically kind way. We tend to branch out in a lot of different directions all at once."(Ormrod 2009).

Thanks,

Maureen
