  • Generating pseudo-random numbers using cellular automata
    Patent number: 10678511
    Abstract: A method for using cellular automata to generate quality pseudo-random numbers, which may be used in cryptographic and other applications. A cellular automaton is a decentralized computing model that enables the performance of complex computations with the help of only local information. In general, cellular automata comprise a plurality of identical basic memory building blocks that are discrete in time and space, where the structure evolves over time according to a local transition rule. Cellular automata can be used in information security as an alternative for classic Feedback Shift Registers (FSRs) for pseudo-random sequence generation. The outputs of a pair of linear FSRs (LFSRs) act as continuous inputs to the two boundaries of a one-dimensional or two-dimensional elementary cellular automata.
