I thought I just answered this on tomcat-dev? ;)

"Jasper" is the nickname for the JSP processor: it evaluates JSPs and
processes them into java servlets to be compiled.  The JSP servlet in
tomcat is mapped to the *.jsp url-pattern by default in conf/web.xml: it
calls jasper to handle JSP requests.

Don't use the term "engine" here as it's confusing.
