This paper describes a new algorithm solving the deterministic equivalents of chance-constrained problems where the random variables are normally distributed and independent of each other. In this method nonlinear chance-constraints are first replaced by uniformly tighter linear constraints. The resulting linear programming problem is solved by a standard simplex method. The linear programming problem is then revised using the solution data and solved again until the stopping rule of the algorithm terminates the process. It is proved that the algorithm converges and that the solution found is the e-optimal solution of the chance-constrained programming problem. The computational experience of the algorithm is reported. The algorithm is efficient if the random variables are distributed independently of each other and if they number less than two hundred. The computing system is called “CHAPS”, i.e. “Chance-ConstrainedProgrammingSystem”.
