Abstract
This paper addresses the problem of type transformations in structured editing systems and proposes a type description model convenient for type comparison and document conversion. Two kinds of transformations are considered: dynamic transformations allow a structured editor to c hange the structure of a part of a document when this part is copied o r moved, and static transformations allow specific tools to restructur e documents when their generic structure is modified. We present in th is paper the current state of our research on formal analysis for thes e transformations.
