Before you can get to coding some perl its going to be necessary to clarify the problem to be solved.

It seems that you have three kernel functions, lets pick one and call it: K(u), and some random data which I assume you are going to use to simulate an arbitrary function F(u).

Now you need to find out how you are going to convolute the two: are you going to integrate their product for all (u), or perhaps F*F*K or what?

Once this part of the problem is clearer it will be relatively easy to simulate the necessary integrals via a finite summation - Perl is excellent for these kinds of tasks.

So please clarify the computation required and we can go from there.
