\section{Related works on GPU based PRNGs}
\label{section:related works}
-In the litterature many authors have work on defining GPU based PRNGs. We do not
-want to be exhaustive and we just give the most significant works from our point
-of view. When authors mention the number of random numbers generated per second
-we mention it. We consider that a million numbers per second corresponds to
-1MSample/s and than a billion numbers per second corresponds to 1GSample/s.
-
-In \cite{Pang:2008:cec}, the authors define a PRNG based on cellular automata
-which does not require high precision integer arithmetics nor bitwise
-operations. There is no mention of statistical tests nor proof that this PRNG is
-chaotic. Concerning the speed of generation, they can generate about
-3.2MSample/s on a GeForce 7800 GTX GPU (which is quite old now).

+Numerous research works on defining GPU based PRNGs have yet been proposed in the
+literature, so that completeness is impossible.
+This is why authors of this document only give reference to the most significant attempts
+in this domain, from their subjective point of view.
+The quantity of pseudorandom numbers generated per second is mentioned here
+only when the information is given in the related work.
+A million numbers per second will be simply written as
+1MSample/s whereas a billion numbers per second is 1GSample/s.

In \cite{ZRKB10}, the authors propose different versions of efficient GPU PRNGs
-based on Lagged Fibonacci, Hybrid Taus or Hybrid Taus. They have used these

PRNGs for Langevin simulations of biomolecules fully implemented on
GPU. Performance of the GPU versions are far better than those obtained with a
-CPU and these PRNGs succeed to pass the {\it BigCrush} test of TestU01. There is
-no mention that their PRNGs have chaos mathematical properties.
