Which features of modern C++ (11,14,17,20) can be used in SystemC/TLM?

Hello,

Just wondering which features of modern C++ can be used for rewriting SystemC simulator to make it more fast and more  expressive?

Thanks and regards-

All, if you rewrite the core. SystemC is simply a C++ library. 

I routinely use C++17 with SystemC.

I will suggest we don’t use C++20 for a few more years because:

1. Compilers are still too immature

2. Some of the changes are quite radical and will take time for user education (e.g., coroutines, modules, and ranges)

3. Some changes would possibly require to much refactoring (e.g., modules)
