To implement process preemption modern-day operating systems typically
to rely on the underlying hardware to asynchronously generate some
kind of interruption signals. These signals can be caught by the
operating system's process scheduler, which can then decide to which
processes to suspend and continue.

If our core calculi had an integrated notion of asynchrony and effects
along the lines of \citeauthor{AhmanP20}'s core calculus
$\lambda_{\text{\ae}}$~\cite{AhmanP20}, then we could possibly treat
interruption signals as asynchronous effectful operations, which can
occur spontaneously and be handled by some user-definable
handler~\cite{DolanEHMSW17}.

One extreme approach is to trust the user to perform invocations of
$\Interrupt$ periodically.

Another approach is to bundle $\Interrupt$ with invocations of other
Another approach is based on the fact that every effect (except for
divergence) occurs via some operation invocation, and every-so-often
the user is likely to perform computational effect, thus the basic
idea is to bundle $\Interrupt$ with invocations of other
operations. For example, we can insert an instance of $\Interrupt$ in
some of the wrapper functions for operation invocations that we have
defined so conscientiously thus far. The problem with this approach is
