Parallel Computations Reveal Hidden Errors of Commonly Used Random Number Generators
This paper reports that in parallel Monte-Carlo simulations of the 2D Ising-Model, commonly used pseudo-random number generators (PRNG) lead to manifestly erroneous results. When ...

Non-Uniform Random Number Generation Through Piecewise Linear Approximations
This paper presents a hardware architecture for non-uniform random number generation, which allows the generator's distribution to be modified at run-time without reconfigura...

Random Number Generators Founded on Signal and Information Theory
The strength of a cryptographic function depends on the amount of entropy in the cryptovariables that are used as keys. Using a large key length with a strong algorithm is false co...

High-Speed True Random Number Generation with Logic Gates Only
It is shown that the amount of true randomness produced by the recently introduced Galois and Fibonacci ring oscillators can be evaluated experimentally by restarting the oscillato...
