We show that the Conjecture of Harbourne and Huneke, $I^{(Nr-(N-1))} \subset M^{(r-1)(N-1)}I^{r}$ holds for ideals of generic (simple) points in $\PP^3$. As a result, for such ideals we prove the following bounds, which can be recognized as generalizations of Chudnovsky bounds: $\alpha(I^{(3m-k)}) \geq m\alpha(I)+2m-k$, for any $m \geq 1$ and $k=0,1,2$. Moreover, we obtain lower bounds for the Waldshmidt constant for such ideals.

A new algorithm is presented bounding the regularity and ''alpha'' (the lowest degree of existing hypersurface) of a linear system of hypersurfaces in P^n passing through multiple points in a general position and a new theorem is formulated and proved, which allows to show the non-speciality of alinear system by splitting it into non- special and simpler systems.
