1. A system for processing an action script for a graphical image for visual display, the system comprising: a network input and output interface to receive data; a first memory to store data; a frame buffer to store pixel data; and a plurality of processors to parse the action script into a plurality of descriptive elements and a corresponding plurality of variable length operand data sets, the plurality of descriptive elements specifying the graphical image in a non-pixel-by-pixel form; to directly convert each descriptive element of the plurality of descriptive elements of the action script into a corresponding operational code of a plurality of operational codes, each corresponding operational code comprising at least one graphical primitive instruction for native execution by at least one processor of the plurality of processors or comprising a memory pointer to an address in the first memory having a sequence of graphical primitive instructions for native execution by at the least one processor of the plurality of processors; to directly convert each variable length operand data set of the corresponding plurality of variable length operand data sets into one or more control words and store the one or more control words in the first memory, each control word comprising operand data and one or more control bits in predetermined fields for the native execution of the one or more graphical primitive instructions by the at least one processor of the plurality of processors; at least one processor of the plurality of processors to directly execute the one or more graphical primitive instructions using the one or more control words to generate pixel data for the graphical image, and to transfer the pixel data to the frame buffer.
