Efficient and portable combined random number generators

In this paper we present an efficient way to combine two or more Multiplicative Linear Congruential Generators (MLCGs) and propose several new generators. The individual MLCGs, ...

Uniform random number generation

Maximally equidistributed combined Tausworthe generators

Tausworthe random number generators based on a primitive trinomial allow an easy and fast implementation when their parameters obey certain restrictions. However, such generator...

On the lattice structure of the add-with-carry and subtract-with-borrow random number generators

Marsaglia and Zaman recently proposed new classes of random number generators, called add-with-carry (AWC) and subtract-with-borrow (SWB), which are capable of quickly generatin...
