A method for using cellular automata to generate quality pseudo-random numbers, which may be used in cryptographic and other applications. A cellular automaton is a decentralized computing model that enables the performance of complex computations with the help of only local information. In general, cellular automata comprise a plurality of identical basic memory building blocks that are discrete in time and space, where the structure evolves over time according to a local transition rule.
