Question

Who is obligated to calculate the veset (menstrual cycles) — the husband or the wife?

Answer

Shalom and blessings, 

Both of them are obligated in this, so that they will not come to transgress a prohibition.

As for which of them will actually do the calculations in practice, there is no binding rule. Some couples calculate together, and there are couples where one of them is more proficient in the calculations, and that person naturally takes on the role of doing them.
