The author considers rational functions in \(n\) complex variables and depending on a parameter. The integrals of such functions over \(n\)-cycles are called \textit{periods}. Periods satisfy ordinary linear differential equations called \textit{Picard-Fuchs equations}. The author gives an elementary algorithm extending the Griffiths-Dwork reduction which can be applied to the computation of Picard-Fuchs equations within the framework of solving problems which previously have been out of reach.
