requires a careful analysis of the temperature effects and of the
probabilistic threshold for spontaneous spin flipping in the repro-
duction of brain areas activation dynamics, which is in due course
now in our lab.

Fig. 11MAS simulation of activity trends in brain areas by an Ising model—II. But for the much wider time
window, all other conditions are identical to those in Fig.10. Notice that 1000 a.u., namely machine time
units, correspond to about 35 s on a MacBook Pro equipped with 2.6 GHz Intel Core i7 processor
