You should definitely look at the Concurrency and Coordination Runtime. It uses iterators for exactly this purpose.

On the other hand, you should also look at Parallel Extensions and its approach to continuations. Parallel Extensions is part of .NET 4.0, whereas the CCR requires separate licensing. I would advise you to go with a framework written by people who eat, breathe and sleep this stuff though. It's just too easy to get details wrong on your own.
