recomputation
Calculating it again
Recomputation is the act of computing something again, typically because initial results were incorrect, conditions have changed, or verification is needed.
The term appears most often in technical contexts—software recalculating values, accountants refiguring totals, or systems updating calculations based on new inputs: The recomputation of benefits took several weeks.
