This is haste, because I am off on holiday tomorrow.

One is customisable instruction sets, where an application can load
a restricted set of instruction patterns, which map into a lower
level hardware ISA.  Very like the Pentium 4, but customisable.
Push that up a level and it becomes very much an interpretation
method.

You lose some advantages of compilation, but gain others (e.g.
compactness).
