With a local variable stack, space on the stack is reused as subroutines are called and the stack depth increases and decreases.
The final common use for a stack in computing is as a subroutine parameter stack.
It is common in register-based machines to see the local variable stack, parameter stack, and return address stack combined into a single stack of activation records, or "frames." In these machines, expression evaluation stacks are eliminated by the compiler, and instead registers are allocated to perform expression evaluation.
