We present a procedure for splitting processes in a process algebra with multi-actions (a subset of the
specification language mCRL2). This splitting procedure cuts a process into two processes along a
set of actions A: roughly, one of these processes contains no actions from A, while the other process
contains only actions from A. We state and prove a theorem asserting that the parallel composition
of these two processes equals the original process under appropriate synchronization.
We apply our splitting procedure to the process algebraic semantics of the coordination language
Reo: using this procedure and its related theorem, we formally establish the soundness of splitting
Reo connectors along the boundaries of their (a)synchronous regions in implementations of Reo.
Such splitting can significantly improve the performance of connectors.
