SFMT19937

This is a SIMD-oriented Fast Mersenne Twister pseudorandom number generator:

where w0, wM, wn-2, ... are 128-bit integers, and the wA, wB, wC, wD operations are defined as follows:

, left shift of 128-bit integer w by a followed by exclusive-or operation

, right shift of each 32-bit integer in quadruple w followed by and-operation with quadruple of 32-bit masks mask,

mask=(0xBFFFFFF6 0xBFFAFFFF 0xDDFECB7F 0xDFFFFFFEF)

, right shift of 128-bit integer w

,  left shift of each 32-bit integer in quadruple w

Integer output: r4n+k = wn(k), where wn(k) is the k-th 32-bit integer in quadruple wn, k = 0, 1, 2, 3

un= (int)rn/232+ ½

Real Implementation (Single and Double Precision)

The output vector is the sequence of the floating-point values u0, u1, ... .

Integer Implementation

The output vector of 32-bit integers r0, r1...

Stream Initialization by Function vslNewStream

SFMT19937 generates the stream and initializes it specifying the input 32-bit unsigned integer parameter seed. The stream state, that is, the array of 156 128-bit integers (624 32-bit integers x0, ..., x623), is initialized by the procedure described in [Saito08] and based on the seed value.

Stream Initialization of Function vslNewStreamEx

SFMT19937 generates the stream and initializes it specifying the array params[] of n 32-bit unsigned integers:

  1. If n ≥ 1, perform initialization as described [Saito08] using array params[]on input.

  2. If n = 0, assume params[0] = 1, n = 1 and perform initialization as described in the previous item.

NOTE:
  1. The tabulated data is obtained using the one-level (threshold) testing technique. The OK result indicates FAIL < 50%. The run fails when p-value falls outside the interval [0.05, 0.95].

  2. The stream tested is generated by calling the function vslNewStream with seed=7,777,777.
