Textbook Question

Chapter 8, Problem 3SI

In many application programs, the size to which a stack can grow is determined by the amount of memory available If the available space is consumed, then the software is designed to produce a message such as “stack overflow” and terminate In most cases, this error never occurs and the user is never aware of it Who is liable if such an error occurs and sensitive information is lost? How could the software developer minimize his or her liability?

MIPS Programming... Data segment!

As a program is started, it allocates memory (address space) to store its many components, such as its code, data, and data structures (stack, heap). Talk about the different applications of stacks and heaps, and how many of them a single process may have.

Under what circumstances can an array declared within a subroutine be allocated in the stack? Under what circumstances must it be allocated in the heap?
