Abstract:

The central nervous system of mammals is described in terms of block diagrams and a 418 x 418 matrix showing the connections between identifiable sites. The terminology is neuroanatomical and the sites are the identifiable cell groupings nuclei and other structures in the brain and spinal cord. The connections between these sites were obtained from the published literature on the anatomy of the nervous system. The use of systems notation to describe this rich network of connections leads to a readily available data bank for carrying out various types of mathematical and theoretical studies, as well as a convenient reference and guide for future neurophysiological and anatomical research.
