Morphology
The meaning 'a computer program that follows defined rules' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'algorithmic' (involving defined steps) with 'program' (coded instructions). This noun–noun composition follows normal compounding patterns and is conceptually clear across languages and registers, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents can infer the MWE's meaning.
Etymology
The noun algorithmic program comes from the idea of an algorithm, a clear list of steps like a recipe, and a program, which is the code that follows those steps. Imagine a cook who follows every step in a recipe exactly; an algorithmic program follows rules in the same way, so it means 'a computer program that follows a set of rules to solve a problem'.
