Abstract
Bruce Belson investigated C++20 'coroutine' support, examining its suitability for Internet-of-Things devices and embedded systems. The enhancements required for widespread embedded use were identified. Coroutines were found to offer improved ease-of-use. Simple and careful application of coroutines delivered 20% speed improvements and 18% power reduction, offering much improved battery life.
