Abstract: Continuous-time random walk (CTRW) models with truncated power law waiting time distribution are investigated.Possible Monte Carlo algorithms to draw random numbers with such distribution are discussed.And an accurate rejection-acceptance method is proposed.Its sampling efficiency is greater than 80% as the power law exponent α > 0.2.Scaling relations of three types of anomalous transport arising in CTRW models are obtained.

Key words: continuous-time random walks, truncated power law, Monte Carlo method
