Advantages of ACORN (from http://ACORN.wikramaratna.org/critique.html):
  <li>extremely light-weight code (a few lines) with reproducible results in any high-level language and on any platform; </li>
  <li>theoretical convergence is mathematically proven; </li>
  <li>all current empirical test suites for PRNGs are passed; </li>
  <li>can be easily extended to give sequences with longer period length, and improved statistical performance over higher dimensions and with higher precision.</li>
