Makoto Matsumoto (mathematician)
Makoto Matsumoto (松本眞, born February 18, 1965) is a Japanese mathematician principally known as the inventor of the Mersenne Twister, a widely used pseudorandom number generator.  He is also the author of the CryptMT stream cipher.

Mersenne Twister
The Mersenne Twister is a general-purpose pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) developed in 1997 by Makoto Matsumoto (松本 眞) and Takuji Nishimura (西村 拓士). Its name derives from the choice of a Mersenne prime as its period length.

The Mersenne Twister was created specifically to address most of the flaws found in earlier PRNGs.

The most commonly used version of the Mersenne Twister algorithm is based on the Mersenne prime .  The standard implementation of that, MT19937, uses a 32-bit word length. There is another implementation (with five variants) that uses a 64-bit word length, MT19937-64 which generates a different sequence.
