$x=(x_1,\dots,x_n)$ maps to $f(x)=(f_1(x),\dots,f_n(x))$.
Functions are iterated as follows.
-At the $t^{th}$ iteration, only the $s_{t}-$th component is

+Let thus be given such kind of map.
+This article focuses on studying its iterations according to
+the equation~(\ref{eq:asyn}) with a given strategy.
+First of all, this can be interpreted as walking into its iteration graph
+where the choice of the edge to follow is decided by the strategy.
+Notice that the iteration graph is always a subgraph of
+$n$-cube augmented with all the self-loop, \textit{i.e.}, all the
+edges $(v,v)$ for any $v \in \Bool^n$.
+Next, if we add probabilities on the transition graph, iterations can be
+interpreted as Markov chains.
+\begin{xpl}
+Let us consider for instance
+the graph $\Gamma(f)$ defined
+in \textsc{Figure~\ref{fig:iteration:f*}.} and
+the probability function $p$ defined on the set of edges as follows:
+$$
+p(e) \left\{
+\begin{array}{ll}
+= \frac{2}{3} \textrm{ if $e=(v,v)$ with $v \in \Bool^3$,}\\
+= \frac{1}{6} \textrm{ otherwise.}
+\end{array}
+\right.
+$$
+The matrix $P$ of the Markov chain associated to the function $f^*$ and to its probability function $p$ is
+\[
+P=\dfrac{1}{6} \left(
+\begin{array}{llllllll}
+4&1&1&0&0&0&0&0 \\
+1&4&0&0&0&1&0&0 \\
+0&0&4&1&0&0&1&0 \\
+0&1&1&4&0&0&0&0 \\
+1&0&0&0&4&0&1&0 \\
+0&0&0&0&1&4&0&1 \\
+0&0&0&0&1&0&4&1 \\
+0&0&0&1&0&1&0&4
+\end{array}

-It is usual to check whether rows of such kind of matrices
-converge to a specific
-distribution.
-Let us first recall the \emph{Total Variation} distance $\tv{\pi-\mu}$,
-which is defined for two distributions $\pi$ and $\mu$ on the same set
-$\Omega$ by:
-$$\tv{\pi-\mu}=\max_{A\subset \Omega} |\pi(A)-\mu(A)|.$$
-% It is known that
-% $$\tv{\pi-\mu}=\frac{1}{2}\sum_{x\in\Omega}|\pi(x)-\mu(x)|.$$
-Let then $M(x,\cdot)$ be the
-distribution induced by the $x$-th row of $M$. If the Markov chain
-induced by
-$M$ has a stationary distribution $\pi$, then we define
-$$d(t)=\max_{x\in\Omega}\tv{M^t(x,\cdot)-\pi}.$$
-Intuitively $d(t)$ is the largest deviation between
-the distribution $\pi$ and $M^t(x,\cdot)$, which
-is the result of iterating $t$ times the function.
-Finally, let $\varepsilon$ be a positive number, the \emph{mixing time}
-with respect to $\varepsilon$ is given by
-$$t_{\rm mix}(\varepsilon)=\min\{t \mid d(t)\leq \varepsilon\}.$$
-It defines the smallest iteration number
-that is sufficient to obtain a deviation lesser than $\varepsilon$.

-Let us finally present the pseudorandom number generator $\chi_{\textit{14Secrypt}}$
-which is based on random walks in $\Gamma(f)$.
-More precisely, let be given a Boolean map $f:\Bool^n \rightarrow \Bool^n$,
-a PRNG \textit{Random},
-an integer $b$ that corresponds to an awaited mixing time, and
-an initial configuration $x^0$.
-Starting from $x^0$, the algorithm repeats $b$ times
-a random choice of which edge to follow and traverses this edge.
-The final configuration is thus outputted.
-This PRNG is formalized in Algorithm~\ref{CI Algorithm}.

-This PRNG is a particularized version of Algorithm given in~\cite{BCGR11}.
-Compared to this latter, the length of the random
-walk of our algorithm is always constant (and is equal to $b$) whereas it
-was given by a second PRNG in this latter.
-However, all the theoretical results that are given in~\cite{BCGR11} remain
-true since the proofs do not rely on this fact.
-
-Let $f: \Bool^{n} \rightarrow \Bool^{n}$.
-It has been shown~\cite[Th. 4, p. 135]{BCGR11}} that
-if its iteration graph is strongly connected, then
-the output of $\chi_{\textit{14Secrypt}}$ follows
-a law that tends to the uniform distribution
-if and only if its Markov matrix is a doubly stochastic matrix.
-
-Let us now present a method to
-generate functions
-with Doubly Stochastic matrix and Strongly Connected iteration graph,
- denoted as DSSC matrix.
