Q30: What is the difference between deterministic and approximate mapping in event processing systems?
- A: Deterministic mapping means exact mapping to real-world events; approximate means the system provides a close but not exact representation.
- B: Deterministic mapping refers to mapping data structures; approximate refers to mapping algorithms.
- C: Deterministic mapping is used in synchronous operations; approximate in asynchronous.
- D: Deterministic mapping uses exact numbers; approximate uses floating-point numbers.
