| contents | Randomly self-assembled nanowire networks (NWNs) are dynamical systems in which junctions between two nanowires can be modelled as memristive units viewed as adaptive resistors with memory. Various memristive models have been proposed to capture the complex mechanics of these junctions. Here, we showcase a novel computational framework named Memristive Nanowire Network Simulator (MemNNetSim) to simulate and analyze random memristive NWNs in a unified approach. Implemented using the Python programming language, MemNNetSim allows for the analysis of static and dynamic scenarios of NWNs under arbitrary memristive models. This provides a versatile foundation to build upon in further work, such as reservoir dynamics with NWNs, which has seen increased interest due to the interconnected architecture of NWNs. In this work, we introduce the package, demonstrate its utility in simulating NWNs, and then test advanced scenarios in which it can aid in the exploratory analysis of these systems, particularly in learning how to use NWNs as a physical reservoir in reservoir computing applications. |
