Abstract
A hardware-based digital random number generator is provided. The digital random number generator is a randomly behaving random number generator based on a set of nondeterministic behaviors. The nondeterministic behaviors include temporal asynchrony between subunits, entropy source 'extra' bits, entropy measurement, autonomous deterministic random bit generator reseeding and consumption from a shared resource.
