Perils of Simulation : Parallel Streams and the Case of Stata’s Rnormal Command
Large-scale simulation-based studies rely on at least three properties of pseudorandom number sequences. Since they behave like random numbers, they can be replicated and generated in parallel. However, there has been some divergence between empirical techniques employing random numbers and the stan...
