Abstract
A data processing system having a Harvard type architecture including a separate data storeand instruction storeis provided with an instruction interpreterthat dynamically modifies slow form instructions to fast form instructions. When a slow form instruction is encountered, the instruction interpreter makes a check within the data store whether a fast form of that instruction has already been provided. If a fast form of the instruction is present within the data store, then this is used instead of the slow form.
