In this study, we introduce a novel modified analytical algorithm for the resolution of boundary value problems on finite and semi-infinite intervals. Our new approach provides great freedom for the identification of the Lagrange multiplier including the auxiliary parameter, which gives a computational advantage for the convergence of approximate solutions. The main advantage of the developed scheme is that it gives convergent approximate solution on semi-infinite intervals. Graphical and numerical results show the complete accuracy and efficiency of the developed scheme.
