   There are many, many embedded apps that use COT of one form or another. The   
   traditional Forth cooperative tasker is supported by all our cross-compilers -   
   even   
   for 8031.   
      
   Now that silicon has more features per unit cost. In many cases, the   
   cooperative   
   tasker has features to reduce power consumption. Allied with efficient   
   high-level   
   Interrupt handling, a modern Forth cooperative scheduler can have much more   
   to offer than the traditional scheduler.
