Self-stabilizing repeated balls-into-bins Becchetti L., Clementi A., Natale E., Pasquale F., Posta G. Distributed Computing 32(1): 59-68, 2019. Type: Article
Starting with an arbitrary assignment of n balls to n bins, the balls-into-bins process repeatedly selects one ball from a non-empty bin and reassigns the selected ball to one of the n

Random numbers and computers Kneusel R., Springer International Publishing, New York, NY, 2018. 260 pp. Type: Book (978-3-319776-96-5), Reviews: (1 of 3)
Randomness is a fascinating topic, with contradictory opinions on what causes it. Rather than using this term to mean lawlessness, I personally define it as the presence of an inherent variability in the experimental setup that makes t...

GPU random numbers via the tiny encryption algorithm Zafar F., Olano M., Curtis A. HPG 2010 (Proceedings of the Conference on High Performance Graphics, Saarbrucken, Germany, Jun 25-27, 2010) 133-141, 2010. Type: Proceedings
Random number generators (RNGs) serve many purposes, from Monte Carlo simulations to computer graphics. The modern graphics processing unit (GPU) is a high-performance programmable parallel processor. A good GPU RNG should provide spee...

Automatic sampling with the ratio-of-uniforms method Leydold J. ACM Transactions on Mathematical Software 26(1): 78-98, 2000. Type: Article
By putting together a number of ideas from previous research, the author creates an efficient sampling method for generating random variables for a wide class of continuous distributions that include the class of log-concave densities....

Beware of linear congruential generators with multipliers of the form a = ±2q ±2r L’Ecuyer P., Simard R. ACM Transactions on Mathematical Software 25(3): 367-374, 1999. Type: Article
Pseudo-random number generators based on linear congruence relations using a congruence base of a Mersenne prime (one that is one less than a power of two) and a multiplier obtained from the sum or difference of two powers of two have ...

Algorithm 780: exponential pseudorandom distribution Hamilton K. ACM Transactions on Mathematical Software 24(1): 102-1060, 1998. Type: Article
Hamilton starts with a brief overview of the algorithms proposed for generating pseudorandom numbers with an exponential distribution. However, the majority of this paper focuses on a paper by Ahrens and Dieter [1]. Despite the fact th...

Multiplicative, congruential random-number generators with multiplier ± 2k1 ± 2k2 and modulus 2p − 1 Wu P. ACM Transactions on Mathematical Software 23(2): 255-265, 1997. Type: Article
Multiplicative congruential generators are at the root of most numeric simulations, and the computers are always hungry for pseudorandom numbers. The 32-bit-based generators are still appropriate for most users, but there is a need to ...

Inversive and linear congruential pseudorandom number generators in empirical tests Leeb H., Wegenkittl S. ACM Transactions on Modeling and Computer Simulation 7(2): 272-286, 1997. Type: Article
Two types of pseudorandom number generators are compared, the well-known linear congruential pseudorandom generator and its inversive counterpart. The latter is familiar to specialists, but is not yet routinely applied. Thus, a compari...
