The Multi-Model Analysis (MMA) computer code can be used to evaluate results from alternative models of a single system using the same set of observations for all models. As long as the observations, the observation weighting, and system being represented are the same, the models can differ in nearly any way imaginable. For example, they may include different processes, different simulation software, different temporal definitions (for example, steady-state and transient models could be considered), and so on. The multiple models may be calibrated by nonlinear regression or another method. Any calibration needs to be completed before application of MMA.
