The process of accessing, traversing, and filtering the stack trace can be referred to as stop-go. Or in other words, we can say that any form of stack trace processing can be referred to as a stop move. A stack trace, also called a stop reverse or a stack trace, is a report of the active stack frames at a specific point in time during program execution.
Refer to Wikipedia and OpenJDK Documentaion for further details.
