Various notes:

Coroutines and continuations are related concepts. Roberto Ierusalimschy's papers include his 1994 "Revisiting Coroutines", with a very nice overview of coroutine stuff. It seems to touch on every flavor of coroutine other than Simon Peyton Jones's "cheap continuations". (He's also the creator of Lua.)

Adam Dunkels, creator of Protothreads, gives a bunch of useful links on threads, continuations, coroutines.
