Monte Carlo and Quasi-Monte Carlo Methods 1996 Proceedings of a Conference at the University of Salzburg, Austria, July 9-12, 1996 / edited by Harald Niederreiter, Peter Hellekalek, Gerhard Larcher, Peter Zinterhof.

Monte Carlo methods are numerical methods based on random sampling and quasi-Monte Carlo methods are their deterministic versions. This volume contains the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Monte Carlo and Quasi-Monte Carlo Methods in Scientific Computing which was held...
