Abstract
Abstract A digital signal processor (32) having an associated memory (34) executes a program interpreter which interprets program routines stored in a program storage area of the memory (34). The program routines are portions of a larger application program. The program routines are downloaded via control of a CPU which stores a library of program routines in its associated program memory.
