"Fusing firing" is a general term for a firing process in which sheet glass is melted and fused together. Depending on the maximum temperature, it ranges from "tack fusion," which leaves the edges intact, to "full fusion," which results in a completely flat surface.
This classification is the counterpart to shaping and firing, which transforms the material into a three-dimensional form.
