Stack algorithms, such as the Least Recently Used (LRU) algorithm, are designed in such a way that they do not exhibit Belady's Anomaly. This anomaly refers to the counterintuitive situation where increasing the number of page frames results in an increase in the number of page faults. Stack algorithms maintain a specific order of pages that ensures adding more frames does not increase page faults.
