Pseudorandom number generators are widely used in the area of simulation. Defective
generators are still widely used in standard library programs, although better pseudorandom …

Many practiced and proposed methods for the generation of pseudo-random numbers for
use in Monte Carlo calculation can be expressed in the following way: One chooses an …

Theory and application of Marsaglia's monkey test for pseudorandom number generators
Page 1 Theory and Application of lVlarsaglia’s Monkey Test for Pseudorandom Number …

There is a very old, but apparently unpublished and possibly unjustified, rule that a single
simulation should never use more pseudorandom numbers than the square root of the …

In the classical approach to pseudo-random number generators, a generator is considered
to perform well if its output sequences pass a battery of statistical tests that has become …

Monte Carlo simulations rely on the quality of pseudo random numbers. Some of the most
common algorithms for the generation of uniformly distributed pseudo random numbers and …

In this article we present background, rationale, and a description of the Scalable Parallel
Random Number Generators (SPRNG) library. We begin by presenting some methods for …

A widely used pseudo-random number generator has been shown to be inadequate by
today's standards. In producing a revised generator, extensive use has been made of a test …

We present results of a test program of a group of pseudorandom number generators which
are commonly used in the applications of physics, in particular in Monte Carlo simulations …

Pseudorandom numbers are important ingredients of stochastic simulations. Their quality is
fundamental for the strength of the simulation outcome. The inversive congruential method …
