Abstract

Many mobile applications, such as games, security software and mathematical applications, use a random number generator(RNG). Since mobile devices operate under a limited battery capacity, the low energy consumption is one of key system requirements. For mobile applications based on an RNG, it is important to use low-power RNGs. In this article, we evaluate the energy efficiency of several well-known RNG algorithms and suggest guidelines for selecting RNGs suitable for mobile application.
