Abstract: For any iterative stochastic optimisation algorithm, it is possible to replace the Random Number Generator (RNG) by a predefined short list of numbers, used cyclically. The author presents here some experiments to check this approach. The results show that it may indeed be interesting, for the same list can be used for variants of a given problem, and even for different problems. However, there are still some important open questions, in particular about the possible methods for building the lists, which are, for the moment, quite empirical.
