Abstract

Themain technique in Computational Neuroscience is imperative programming, which is often used to implement simulations of dynamics, and describes how a computation is performed. A complement to this approach is declarative programming. Declarations provide descriptions of relationships between elements, effectively describing what the computation should accomplish. The use of declarative programming for modeling biological processes is still in its infancy (Fisher and Henzinger 2007) yet has shown itself to be a valuable first step for analysis of the seemingly impenetrable complexity of molecular interactomics: the interplay of the myriad proteins and signaling species in the cell. Declarative programming can also be used at the connectomic level of understanding connections among neurons or among brain areas.
