Abstract
In both the conventional and the Halfin-Whitt heavy traffic diffusion regimes, the slowdown (defined as the sojourn time/service time ratio) experienced by a typical customer, degenerates in the limit, to infinity and 1, respectively. In practice, however, it often occurs that delay and service time are comparable. We study a diffusion regime in which delay and service time are of the same order of magnitude. In a setting with many heterogeneous, exponential servers, (possibly with abandonment), we find the limiting joint law of these two processes.
