Abstract
In this paper we consider finite-dimensional constrained Hamiltonian systems of polynomial type. In order to compute the complete set of constraints and separate them into the first and second classes we apply the modern algorithmic methods of commutative algebra based on the use of Groebner bases. As it is shown, this makes the classical Dirac method fully algorithmic. The underlying algorithm implemented in Maple is presented and some illustrative examples are given.
