Interpreter generation and implementation utilizing interpreter states and register caching

摘要

Systems and methods for increasing the execution speed of interpreted programs which utilize an operand stack are provided. The value for the top of the operand stack is stored in one or more registers. A state of the interpreter indicates the data type of the value for the top of the operand stack stored in the one or more registers. An interpreter may be generated that is both fast and efficient in terms of the memory required for the interpreter.
