An Efficient Implementation of an Exponential Random Number Generator in a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA)

Many physical, biological, ecological and behavioral events occur at times and rates that are exponentially distributed. Modeling these systems requires simulators that can accurately generate a large quantity of exponentially distributed random numbers, which is a computationally intensive task....
