SOME ASPECTS OF GO/NO-GO TESTING OF RANDOMNESS OF CONTINUALLY GENERATED BINARY DIGITS

Abstract

Problems associated with measuring randomness in the dynamic case of a generator continually producing binary digits are investigated. The mathematics of Bernoulli trials serves as the model against which the performance of the generator is compared. It is shown that there are a large number of ways in which a measuring system might be attempted. Such systems are based on explicit functions (called measure functions) of p; the probability that a one is generated.
