v0.11.0

v0.11.0 (22.04.2025 Happy Easter)

Focussing on bug fixes, modernisation and performance improvements.
The memory footprint has been reduced substantially

Major changes since v0.10

• Modernising the code base and infrastructure:
  • Begin adopting C++20
  • Use the ruff linter / formatter
  • Use CPM and simplify CMake.
• Fixing problems with diffusion
  • Update units and scaling
  • Correct solver matrix coefficients
• ⚠️ Modcc used to mis-compile -K^n into (-K)^n due to a parser error
• Allow probing of point mechanism state variables by tag.

Breaking changes

• Stricter checks on network construction / simulation parameters.
  • connections will now throw errors when given negative / zero delays
  • simulation will throw when given a network with minimum delay less than the
    timestep
• Discretisation now is a property of the cable_cell object, no longer the
  decor

New tutorials and documentation

• Plasticity tutorial
• Add connectivity tutorial

Internal changes

• Auto-generate type stubs
• Remove clock for std::chrono
• added E_R to lif cell model
• Performance
  • Fix embarrassingly quadratic bug in fvm-layout
  • Faster sort spikes
  • Faster event dispatch
• Memory footprint
  • Create less intermediate data from events
  • Elide GPU allocations for unused arrays (Xd, Xi, ...)
• Clean-up catalogue extension. by @thorstenhater in #2409
• Refactor discretization. by @thorstenhater in #2415
