“…Further, Table 2 shows that when estimating MFAs, the median value of
for CMS( T 1 ) and CMS(
) are 1.25 and 1.39, indicating an average underestimation of about 25% and 39%, respectively; this degree of underestimation is also consistent with past research in which a single CMS with a single
might be unconservative for some types of EDP 34 . By contrast, Table 2 shows that the median value of
for CMS(
) is 1.03 for MFA and 1.69 for MSDR, implying an average underestimation of about 3% for MFA and 69% for MSDR, respectively; these data also confirm findings from prior work that at least two CMSs are required to satisfactorily estimate demands for a variety of EDP types
3,26,31,38,87,89 . The table demonstrates that as the number of CMSs increases, the accuracy improves.…”
