General

  • Redesign the framework of RNG in Julia Base.
    • advance! function whenever possible.
    • copy and copyto!.
  • Help improve Distributions.jl.

PCG

  • Implement the extended version of PCG generators, which supports larger periods.
  • Figure out the performance issue of PCG_XSH_RS: it is expected to run faster than PCG_RXS_M_XS.

Mersenne Twisters

  • Implement the 64-bit version of MT19937.

Random123

  • Make use of CUDA or OpenCL.
  • Improve the performance.
  • Store counters in a better way.

Wrapped RNG

  • A function to be constructed from another WrappedRNG.

Others

  • Perhaps consider implementing arc4random or Chacha20, which is slow but cryptographically secure.
  • Something like seed_seq in C++.
  • Test submodules separately.
