Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed in which a derived table can inherit a growth pattern from a template table. A growth pattern is used to define how memory is allocated to a table as the table grows. The derived table can inherit the growth pattern defined by its template table or it can provide an override growth pattern. Inheritance of the growth pattern can be performed by explicit copying or by reference or link. Growth patterns can be edited, and the edits can be applied universally or locally.
