Abstract
A method for generating actual random numbers within a multiprocessor system is disclosed. A first processing thread is continuously writing to a shared memory space while a second processing thread is continuously reading from the same shared memory space without utilizing a locking mechanism for synchronizing the two processing threads. Preferably, each of the processing threads is executed on a separate processing unit. An actual random number can then be generated from the data read from the shared memory space by the second processing thread.
