Abstract :
A new algorithm for the adjustment of fundamental constants presented at CPEM ´96 is ameliorated. Rules for selection of the final solutions are established. Final solutions are obtained by excluding the discrepant items one by one and terminating when three criteria for exclusion are satisfied. Our results are compared with the existing recommended values.
