Your myCalculatedProperty must be contained within one of your properties file (which are injected by the Spring propertyPlaceholderConfigurer).

EDIT : simply use the setter, something like this

public static void main(final String[] args) {
    String myCalculatedProperty = magicFunction();         
    AbstractApplicationContext appContext =
          new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("applicationContext.xml");

    Process p = appContext.getBean(Process.class);
    p.setMyCalculatedProperty(myCalculatedProperty);
    p.start();
}
