OFF TOPIC: Book on Term Structure Implementation

Billy Ng-5

I am a MSc student planning for a project.
This is my first financial project which involves adding in a Term Structure into an existing Package based on J2EE.

Would that be a good approach for a first time project to use the QuantLib-SWIG wrapper approach?
My concern is whether this is a robust approach with a sizable-to-large quantlib user base and active users in this mailing list.
 
Any recommendation for a practical book in Term Structure Implementation such as using LIBOR Forward Model?
Should I start with this book "Interest Rate Models - Theory and Practice, by D. Brigo, F. Mercurio"?

Under QuantLib, any good example for reference?
Is FittedBondCurve.cpp a good start?

Many Thanks

Billy Ng

you may want to take a look at JQuantLib:
http://www.jquantlib.org/index.php/Main_Page

I see it was updated on jan 17, based on quantlib 0.9.7 so far..

Re: OFF TOPIC: Book on Term Structure Implementation

Billy Ng-5
 
The reason I am seeking comments on the Quantlib/SWIG approach is speed.
 
Any comment on the speed of JQuantlib?
I read in their benefits "running at speeds competitive with C++"
 
For Quantlib, any comment in the speed in real life deployment?
What functions are good for speed benchmark in general, to differentiate good programming practice?

In reply to this post by Q Boiler
I use QL-SWIG. works reliably. JNI doesn't incur a performance hit if used carefully. May need to learn SWIG to expose QL methods that aren't yet exposed.
