Numerical Simulation Laboratory

Simulation is an essential tool in studying complex systems, anticipating, complementing and reinforcing both experimental and theoretical approaches. The purpose of this computing laboratory is to introduce and apply advanced Monte Carlo sampling and other techniques to perform simulations of complex systems and to solve complex numerical tasks.
The course aims to provide students with:
1) advanced techniques for sampling random variables and simulate stochastic processes
2) familiarity with the applications of these techniques to the simulation of complex systems
3) an introduction to some computational intelligence techniques
4) an introduction to parallel computation and parallel programming
