Parallel Random Number Generation

Parallel simulations make special demands on random number generators. How can we ensure that random streams are independent on each machine? L'Ecuyer et.al. provide object-oriented generators with a period length of approximately 2^191. Implementations in C, C++, and Java are available at http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/$\sim$lecuyer/myftp/streams00/
