Incorrect. Processes are run concurrently, not sequentially. Any
interrupt (i.e. disk i/o, timer, network traffic) will cause the OS to
switch back to the system to handle the interrupt. When processing
resumes, it will be the next process in the list. That is not
necessarily the same process which was executing before the interrupt.
That's why things like mutex semaphores and file locks exist.
