Intuitive Mathematician [5] (for the built-in "calculator"); Eidetic Memory [5] or Photographic Memory [10] (to hold the various coordinates); ETS [45] and/or Compartmentalized Mind [50] (for extra computing speed). Unfortunately, there aren't any guidelines for just
how fast ETS lets someone think, so I can't really comment on how long the calculations would take.
The alternative, of course, is Accessory: Small Computer [1], which is definitely appropriate in UT games where most characters would have easy access to processing power. Of course, this is a far less powerful machine than normally required for parachronic calculations, so would take much longer if working from scratch. It might at best be able to make those last-minute corrections in hours instead of minutes.
