Bounded waiting ensures that a process will not have to wait indefinitely to enter its critical section, thus limiting the amount of time it can wait. Mutual exclusion ensures that only one process can enter the critical section at a time, while progress ensures that if no process is currently in the critical section and multiple processes are requesting to enter, then only one process can enter at a time.
