Hi Simon,
yes, I know there are many papers (e.g. one can find lots of references and a comprehensive treatment in Glasserman's book on MC methods). What I meant was how and where to implement such a thing within the QuantLib framework. Is there any canonical place within the QuantLib code to start from?
