Abstract
A fused object includes a head and a tail. A head template is not modifiable. A tail template is modifiable. Modifying a tail template includes verifying the validity of a transition from a current tail template to a new tail template. The validity of the transition is determined by analyzing the type transitions per memory slot. If the type transition, for each memory slot, constitutes a type-compatible transition, then the transition from the current tail template to the new tail template is valid. If the type transition, for any memory slot, is not type-compatible, then the transition from the current tail template to the new tail template is not valid. A fused object may be associated with a repeating tail. A tail template associated with a fused object is repeated multiple times in the tail of the fused object.
