- B: "buffering odds" according to this article,
: "buffering value" according to Van Slyke [4]; 
: "buffering coefficient" according to Saleh et al. [6]. First row: given source units; first column: desired target units; intersection of particular row and particular column: transformation, i.e., functions of the respective source unit, that yields the target unit.
