This MATLAB code was contributed by Yujiang.Wang at newcastle.ac.uk

To run this code, it is important to includ the lib folder in your
path (as done in startup.m).

Some of the scripts require a lot of memory (up to 2GB), and can be
very slow depending on the machine you run it on. An easy way to get
around this is to reduce the system size (e.g. n=50).

basicSim.m and basicSimDelay.m demonstrate how a basic simulation can
be obtained. To understand the functions in lib, it is recommended to
go through these two files step by step. basicSimDelay.m essentially
simulates the same system as basicSim.m, only with delay times
included.

The lib folder includes the functions to create your own patchy remote
connectivity matrices. To download the code version with all the
precalculated connectivity matrices, please go to the code & resources
section on the author's website http://ywang.co.uk/

The files Fig*.m can be used to reproduce the time series in the
figures 4-8 in the publication.

Example run:
Type at the matlab command prompt:

startup
Fig4_runRampFocal

After a little while (30 seconds on a 2013 MacBook Pro laptop) a few
figures appear including this one:
