High-Performance Computing in Neuroscience for Data-Driven Discovery, Integration, and Dissemination.
Opportunities offered by new neuro-technologies are threatened by lack of coherent plans to analyze, manage, and understand the data. High-performance computing will allow exploratory analysis of massive datasets stored in standardized formats, hosted in open repositories, and integrated with simulations.
