Analysis of Inference Engine Halting

An LLM inference engine uses a dynamic, iteration-based batching system. After several computational steps where requests were added and removed from the active batch, the final remaining request completes its generation. The scheduler removes this last request, leaving the batch empty. Immediately after this action, the entire engine halts processing. Based on the general principles of this batching method, explain the two conditions that must have been met for the engine to halt.
