Abstract
This paper introduces an improvement to a currently published algorithm to compute both Lucas "sister" sequences <i>V<sub>k</sub></i> and <i>U<sub>k</sub></i>. The proposed algorithm uses Lucas sequence properties to improve the running time by about 20% over the algorithm published in [1].
