A really simple I question I guess. Is there an algorithm or method such that given an integer $N$ there is a way to determine the next twin prime pair greater than $N$?
If yes, then could you please explain it?

It isn't even known that there is always a twin prime pair greater than $N$ (so strictly speaking, there isn't an algorithm that is known to work).
