| | Stack (computing) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Stack machine, a model of computation in which the computer's memory takes the form of one or more stacks | | | Stack, as a term in computing, refers to: | | | Stack-based memory allocation as opposed to heap-based memory allocation in computing architecture |

| | Hexapedia - Stack (computing) |
| | A stack-based computer system is one that is based on the use of stacks, rather than being register based. | | | A number of computer languages are stack-oriented, meaning they define most basic operations (adding two numbers, printing a character) as taking their arguments from the stack, and placing any return values back on the stack. | | | A stack may be represented in computers inside block of memory cells, with the bottom at a fixed location, and a variable stack pointer to the current top cell. |

| | Stack Computers: 1.4 WHY ARE STACKS USED IN COMPUTERS? | | | Both hardware and software stacks have been used to support four major computing areas in computing requirements: expression evaluation, subroutine return address storage, dynamically allocated local variable storage, and subroutine parameter passing. | | | The use of an expression evaluation stack is so basic to the evaluation of expressions that even register-based machine compilers often allocate registers as if they formed an expression evaluation stack. |
