The generator consists of multiple tunneling junctions （MTJ） and a hybrid single electron transistor （SET）/MOS output circuit. It is an oscillator-based RNG. MTJ is used to implement a high-frequency oscillator, which uses the inherent physical randomness in tunneling events of the MTJ to achieve large frequency drift. The hybrid SET and MOS output circuit is used to amplify and buffer the output signal of the MTJ oscillator. The RNG circuit generates high-quality random digital sequences with a simple structure. The operation speed of this circuit is as high as 1GHz. The circuit also has good driven capability and low power dissipation. This novel random number generator is a promising device for future cryptographic systems and communication applications.展开更多

Using a doubly-stochastic transition-matrix results in a weather generator for which the overall precipitation distribution(including both wet and dry days) and the temporal-correlation can be modified independently for climate change studies. This paper assesses the ability of the 10-state empirical model to simulate daily area-average precipitation in the Torne River catchment in northern Sweden/western Finland in the context of 3 other models: a 10-state model with a parametric(Gamma) amounts model; a wet/dry chain with the empirical amounts model; and a wet/dry chain with the parametric amounts model. The ability to accurately simulate the distribution of multi-day precipitation in the catchment is the primary consideration.Results showed that the 10-state empirical model represented accumulated 2- to 14-day precipitation most realistically. Further, the distribution of precipitation on wet days in the catchment is related to the placement of a wet day within a wet-spell, and the 10-state models represented this realistically, while the wet/dry models did not. Although all four models accurately reproduced the annual and monthly averages in the training data, all models underestimated inter-annual and inter-seasonal variance. Even so, the 10-state empirical model performed best.We conclude that the multi-state model is a promising candidate for hydrological applications, as it simulates multi-day precipitation well, but that further development is required to improve the simulation of interannual variation.展开更多

Therefore, it is difficult to apply for the construction of huge finite fields. To avoid this problem, we propose a new method to construct huge finite fields with the characteristic p = 5 by using an Artin-Schreier tower. Utilizing the recursive basis of the Artin-Schreier tower, we define a nmltiplication algorithm The algorithm can explicitly calculate the multiplication of two elements on the top finite field of this tower, without any primitive element. We also define a linear recurrence equation as an application, which produces a sequence of numbers, and call the new pseudorandom number generator Abstract Syntax Tree （AST） for p = 5. The experircental results show that our new pseudorandom number generator can produce a sequence of numbers with a long period.展开更多
