Abstract

IoT devices are everywhere. Developing embedded system software is a challenge. Embedded systems are inherently event-driven and concurrent multitasks. Coroutine-based concurrency is better suited than multi-threading on microcontrollers with limited computing resources. Using higher interpreted language and a robust cooperative model will help. An Actor Model implemented in MicroPython can provide a solution for agile development and deployment of dynamically programmable devices in actor-based networks.
