tractability
Tractability refers to the degree of ease or difficulty in solving a problem, accomplishing a task, or managing a situation. If a task is tractable, it is easily managed, dealt with, or controlled. In the context of computational problems, tractability often implies that the problem can be solved in polynomial time, i.e., in a reasonable amount of time relative to the problem's size.
