User layer API¶
A NineML model is made up of populations of cells, connected via synapses,
which may exhibit plasticity. The models for the cells, synapses and plasticity
mechanisms are all instances of subclasses of Component. Populations
of cells are represented by Population, the set of connections between
two populations by Projection. Finally, the entire model is
encapsulated in Network.

References¶
NineML has three closely-related objects used to refer to other NineML objects.
Definition is used inside Components to refer to abstraction
layer ComponentClass definitions.
Prototype is used inside Components to refer to
previously-defined Components. Reference is used inside
Selections to refer to Population objects, and inside
Projections to refer to Populations and
Selections.
