Sorry to disagree here, but you forget that you can not be sure that the initial seed on one of the machines will not be generated by another one...so you can end up with completely correlated series. Check "scalable parallel number generator" (sprng), working well for us, using different recurrence formulas on different machines. -- Florent Calvayrac | Tel : 02 43 83 26 26 Laboratoire de Physique de l'Etat Condense | Fax : 02 43 83 35 18 UMR-CNRS 6087 | http://www.univ-lemans.fr/~fcalvay Universite du Maine-Faculte des Sciences | 72085 Le Mans Cedex 9
