We construct a pseudo-random generator for space bounded computations using the extractor of Zuckerman [7]. For machines that use S space and R≤2S1-e random bits for ϵ> 0, the generator uses a seed of length O((S log R)/ log S) which is shorter than the seed of both the generator of Nisan [4] and the generator of Nisan and Zuckerman [5]. We then use this generator to derandomize these machines in space (Formula presented) which is better than the derandomization of [6].
