Abstract

Necessary and sufficient conditions on a function fp are given for the existence of a simulation procedureto simulate a Bernoulli variable with success probabilityfp from independent Bernoulli variables with successprobability p, with p being constrained to lie in a subsetP of [0,1] but otherwise unknown. © 1994, ACM.
