Original Abstract Submitted

A computing device includes a memory and a processing device. The memory enters an uninitialized state in response to power being applied to the memory. The processing device is coupled to the memory, and is configured to select a portion of the memory in the uninitialized state to seed a random number generator process. The processing device may alternatively select an uninitialized state of the network hardware that is coupled to the processing device to seed a random number generator process. In one embodiment, the computing device is a compute node in a multi-node processing system, and the memory is a High-Bandwidth Memory.
