computer processing work
the work a computer or algorithm does to process information
사용 패턴：
[system/algorithm] performs computation; computation on [data]
자주 하는 실수：
Do not use computation as a general synonym for computer. It refers to the processing work, not the machine itself.
유의어
computing (more common and general, especially for computer-based activity)
