How do I test unpredictability ?

The unpredictability (i.e. uniform distribution and irreproducibility) of the random number sequences generated by HAVEGE were tested using the three following packages:
• Diehard
• Ent
• NIST statistical suite


Online analysis implementing the NIST statiscal suite is proposed as an option .
An example of the output of such an analysis is available here (for the previous HAVEGE version).
restriction: to use online analysis on Windows systems, you must use the CygWin environment.
 
 

We are interested in other uniform distribution tests and feedback on the generator: seznec@irisa.fr
