computationally
Through digital calculation
In a way that involves computation—the processing of data through calculation or algorithmic steps.
The term appears in technical contexts: computationally intensive tasks, computationally feasible solutions.
Something computationally expensive requires significant processing resources; something computationally trivial does not.
