Abstract
A programming language is implemented in terms of another programming language via deep and/or modified shallow embedding. Embedded language control structures and/or type system are decomposed to primitive features. These features are semantically mapped to host language features. Other embedded language features are explicitly constructed in the host language. A map can also be constructed as a function of implementation to facilitate mapping embedded language applications to host language applications.
