LEMS
====

The Low Entropy Model Specification language. This repository contains the [Schema](https://github.com/LEMS/LEMS/tree/master/Schemas/LEMS) for the language, some [examples](https://github.com/LEMS/LEMS/tree/master/examples) and code for [generating the documentation](https://github.com/LEMS/LEMS/tree/master/docgeneration).

jLEMS can be used to parse and execute any LEMS model. For an application which adds NeuroML 2 ComponentType definitions and various options for importing & exporting LEMS to other formats, see [jNeuroML](https://github.com/NeuroML/jNeuroML).
