Access to SpiNNaker board via eBrain

[Brain and More Lab]

Hello,

I wrote previously, but maybe my email was unclear.

I have access to the eBrain platform, and I found the notebook for SpiNNaker. Are there any limitations?

I need to train models using PyTorch and PyNN

reading https://spinnakermanchester.github.io/

it seems anyway on eBrains with the normal, I am running simulations, I am not running on the real board. Or am I wrong?

Can someone clarify how to access to the real board?

I can share the research proposal.

Thank you.

Hi,

To add to the previous response, when you use SpiNNaker on EBRAINS with PyNN, you are accessing the real machine in Manchester.  You are allocated boards and the job is then executed on the machine.  There are some restrictions on that in terms of quota, but you can always ask for more quota if you need to.

Andrew :)
