In this paper, a new pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) based on improved one-dimensional discrete-space chaotic map is proposed. Like the original, the improved map relies on bijective mapping of ...

Using a single, chip-scale laser, scientists have managed to generate streams of completely random numbers at about 100 times the speed of the fastest random-numbers generator systems that are ...

Computer scientists have borrowed from the world of geology and crystals to help machines better generate random numbers. Here's how their method works.

Mathematics of Computation, Vol. 51, No. 184 (Oct., 1988), pp. 757-759 (3 pages) A nonlinear congruential pseudorandom number generator is studied where the modulus is a power of two. Investigation of ...
