OPTIMAL MULTIPLIERS FOR PSEUDO-RANDOM NUMBER GENERATION BY THE LINEAR CONGRUENTIAL METHOD uri icon

abstract

  • A systematic search method is employed to find multipliers for linear congruential pseudo-random number generation which are optimal with respect to statistical independence of pairs of successive pseudo-random numbers. Tables of such optimal multipliers corresponding to moduli 2n, n 35, are included. 1983 BIT Foundations.
