Tabular Computation, also known as the Computus or the Tabular Computus (sometimes called Great Reckoning in Elland), was the set of mathematical, astronomical, and numerological methods used during the period of Imperial Cairony in the Sabāmani Civilisation to implement the Tabular Cycle which governed the long-term economic and social policies of the Third Sabāmani Empire. Developments around Tabular Computation form an important part of the history of Messenian mathematics.

Although Tabular cycles are not a feature of post-Secote Cairony anymore, the Cairan calendar, a major tool of computus, is still in use today.
