Abstract
The present invention is a method and system of reusing a local memory space in a computer. In accordance with the invention an incoming stream of computer instructions is analyzed by an executable module to determine the presence of a first predetermined operator in the stream of computer instructions. If the first predetermined operator is present, the present invention determines the value of a parameter following the first operator in the stream and the executable module interposes a second operator in place of the first operator and reuses a local memory space to store an instance of the parameter in the memory space in response to the execution of the second operator.
