In the first part of our two-part blog series, we have discussed how parallel computing applications can best use pseudo-random number generators (PRNGs) so as to benefit from parallel computing speedups, without negatively impacting the statistical properties of the random numbers generated. We have argued that index-based PRNGs (e.g., from the Random123 library), which do … Continue reading Random Numbers in Parallel Computing: Generation and Reproducibility (Part 2)
