Queueing theory

a heavy-traffic limit for many-server queues in which servers grow and utilization nears one so that delay probability stays strictly between zero and one.

In queueing theory, Halfin-Whitt regime refers to a heavy-traffic limit for many-server queues in which servers grow and utilization nears one so that delay probability stays strictly between zero and one. This meaning comes from Halfin (1981) in Operations Research.[1]
