Oem eoc? (automated engine off coasting)

I was reading a recent copy of Automotive Engineering International magazine, and caught something interesting. Much of the magazine was focused on the 2025 CAFE standards, and one column was about Start/Stop technology. Auto manufacturers are working on improving these systems to automatically stop the engine while coasting. According to the article, this should be good for a 15% reduction in fuel consumption.
