Process algebra, process scheduling, and mutual exclusion

In the case of multi-threading as found in contemporary programming languages, parallel processes are interleaved according to what is known as a process-scheduling policy in the field of operating systems. In a previous paper, we extend ACP with this form of interleaving. In the current paper, we do so with the variant of ACP known as ACP$_ε$. The choice of ACP$_ε$ stems from the need to cover more process-scheduling policies. We show that a process-scheduling policy supporting mutual exclusion of critical subprocesses is now covered.
