23 As an introduction to this tutorial we will give you a quick introduction to the BrainScaleS-2 hardware and its other features. We will further talk about compute clusters and the BrainScaleS system access via "slurm". Before we go into out first experiments we will go over block diagrams and lowlevel configuration s and give a brief introduction to the Pine language.

86 In this tutorial we will look into BrainScaleS-2 embedded general-purpose processors, called PPUs (Plasticity Processing Units). We want to show how the PPUs can be used to rate-code an image in the activity of neurons. Later on, we will define the network topology using the pyNN interface and then define the plasticity rule in C++.
