Abstract: We consider the requirements for uniform pseudo-random number generators on modern vector and parallel supercomputers, consider the pros and cons of various classes of methods, and outline what is currently available. We propose a class of random number generators which have good statistical properties and can be implemented efficiently on vector processors and parallel machines. A good method for initialization of these generators is described, and an implementation on a Fujitsu VP 2200/10... (Update)
