Hi
How much horsepower do you have on the gizmo that's doing the generation? For
instance, is this coming out of an MSP-430 or a Core I-7?

The mighty ArduinoUno...
But it only has to generate one number every second: i.e. I'm simulating
human heartbeats: I have a anthropomorphic dummy that has air bladders
for lungs and heart that we use to simulate a human for radar testing.
The Arduino just uses timers to open and close solenoid valves to create
the right frequency and amplitude of motion. Right now it has a somewhat
unrealistically uniform pulse rate.
There's some faster cheap processors out there that I could drop in, as
well: teensy3 with the 48MHz Cortex is pretty powerful.

I need to generate a sequence of pulses at around 1 Hz with a 1/f
characteristic (human heartbeat, as it happens). I'd like to do this using
software and a timer, so I'm looking for a clever algorithm using a random
number generator to do it.
