Random numbers often serve as the backbone for many security solutions in diverse domains such as cryptography, side channel leakage prevention, and moving target defense. However, generating true ...

There are a great variety of ways to build a random number generator, and similarly many ways to generate numbers that appear random, but in a pure mathematical sense generally aren’t. [Danie… ...

It is essential to distinguish between Pseudorandom Number Generators (PRNGs) and True Random Number Generators (TRNGs). PRNGs use algorithms, so the numbers they generate appear random but are ...

This world of pseudorandom numbers is exotic and full of open problems. Mathematicians think that all sorts of interesting sequences are pseudorandom but have no way to prove that.

The proof could open new doors for quantum computing and cryptography research. “Before this recent result on pseudorandom [circuits], we didn’t have good evidence that they actually exist,” said ...

This paper deals with the inversive congruential method with power of two modulus m for generating uniform pseudorandom numbers. Statistical independence properties of the generated sequences are ...

Oxford University Press is a department of the University of Oxford. It furthers the University's objective of excellence in research, scholarship, and education by publishing worldwide. OUP is the ...

[MS3FGX] has done an interesting study about using Bluetooth adapters as a source for Pseudorandom Number Generation (PRNG). As it turns out, the Bluez package has a function that calls a remote Bl… ...

The classic approach to generating a pseudorandom-noise sequence is to model the linear-feedback-shift register in software. The method involves testing and XORing together multiple bits to provide ...

Pseudochaotic many-body dynamics as a pseudorandom state generator Recent work introduced pseudorandom quantum states, indistinguishable from truly random states by any polynomial-time algorithm.
