Twice adaptive method of random testing

Abstract

This paper presents a new method for random testing. The results comparing the new test with the test proposed by NIST, USA are provided. It is shown, that the new test, being used on some generators, is more effective than the previously known tests. The paper presents the results of benchmark testing of pseudorandom number generators (PRNG).
