A hom-associative algebra is an algebra whose associativity is twisted by an\nalgebra homomorphism. It was previously shown by the author that the Hochschild\ncohomology of a hom-associative algebra A carries a Gerstenhaber structure.\nIn this short paper, we show that this Gerstenhaber structure together with\ncertain operations on the Hochschild homology of A makes a noncommutative\ndifferential calculus. As an application, we obtain a Batalin-Vilkovisky\nalgebra structure on the Hochschild cohomology of a regular unital symmetric\nhom-associative algebra.\n
