Figures
This repository contains an informal library of figures created in various ways and for various purposes which may be of use to others. These figures are typically described in TikZ, Inkscape or generated by Python (usually by outputting machine generated SVG or TikZ source).
Though the figures are intended to be aesthetically pleasing, their descriptions are often not. Please be aware of this if you are considering adapting a figure!
You can clone the repository containing these figures over on GitHub.
Skew in Parallel Signals
A (horrific) script which generates examples of parallel signals with varying amounts of skew.
High Speed Serial Signals
A (horrific) script which generates examples of serial signals with options to distort and encode the messages. Relies on eightbtenb.py, an equally horrific and known incorrect 8b10b encoder/decoder implementation (good enough for figures...).
Spiking Neuron For Illustration Purposes Only
An illustrative example of a spiking neuron model. Highly biologically unrealistic and so not the sort of thing really used in simulations but gets the jist across.
Neural Network For Illustration Purposes Only
An illustrative example of a neural network. Mostly illustrates that it is a graph and can highlight a single neuron and its links which is handy while talking about fan-out.
SpiNNaker Network Folding
Shows the steps to fold a network of $4\times4$ threeboards in SpiNNaker. Red, Green and Blue correspond to North, North-East, East respectively. Touching edges are implicitly connected.
SpiNNaker 106 Machine In Cabinets
Shows the wiring for a version of the largest planned SpiNNaker machine with 1,200 boards of 48 chips with 18 cores each mapped into cabinets. Generated by the SpiNNer wiring guide generator using a LaTeX installation specifically configured to allow the use of insanely large diagrams.
