We describe the design of Yarrow, a family of cryptographic pseudo-random number generators (PRNG). We describe the concept of a PRNG as a separate cryptographic primitive, and the...
We give an outline of the specification and provable security features of the QUAD stream cipher proposed at Eurocrypt 2006 [6]. The cipher relies on the iteration of a multivaria...
Abstract. Monte Carlo (MC) methods have proved to be flexible, robust and very useful techniques in computational finance. Several studies have investigated ways to achieve greater...
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 ...

— Pseudo-random number generators (PRNG) have been intensively used in many stochastic algorithms in artificial intelligence, computer graphics and other scientific computing. ...
