A stack register is a computer central processor register whose purpose is to keep track of a call stack. On an accumulator-based architecture machine...

In software, a stack buffer overflow or stack buffer overrun occurs when a program writes to a memory address on the program's call stack outside of the...

processors provide hardware support for procedural programming through a stack register and instructions for calling procedures and returning from them. Hardware...

The stack and frame pointers are used to manage the call stack. Rarely, other data stacks are addressed by dedicated address registers (see stack machine)...

register stack unmodified, it may still modify FIP and CC, and it may fault if a pending x87 FPU exception is present. If the top-of-stack register st(0)...

with these transfers typically done via certain registers or within a stack frame on the call stack. There are design choices for how the tasks of preparing...
