    Q. Differentiate between multiple state model and multiple decrement model?

    Ans:

    Multiple state model is a model where more than one decrement is available and returns to the same state is possible.

    Multiple decrement model is the one which has one active state and one or more absorbing exit states. Only one-way decrement is possible i.e. return to the same state is not possible.
