Abstract

An interpreter-based embedded scripting environment includes multiple runtime processors executed by the computer. Each of the runtime processors processes their respective corresponding intermediate sources derived from an original input source in a synchronous manner. One or more of the respective corresponding intermediate sources includes a synchronizer token that provides synchronization among the runtime processors. Using the synchronizer token, an execution sequence of the original input source is maintained.
