Prof. Tempone and some members of the Stochastic Numerics Research Group gave invited presentations to the mini-symposium hosted at the School of Economics and Administration of the Universidad de la República, Montevideo, Uruguay, on December 22, 2016. This event, chaired by Prof. Scavino and co-organized with Prof. Goyeneche (UdelaR), has consisted of two parts. In the first part has been introduced the opportunities offered by the Visiting Student Research Program and by the Master and Doctoral Programs developed by the Division of Applied Mathematics at KAUST. The second part has been devoted to present the state of the art of several topics researched at the Stochastic Numerics Research Group, among them novel Monte Carlo-type methods and their computational implementation.
