A model transformation may also have several source models and several target models.

One of the characteristics of a model transformation is that it is also a model, i.e. it conforms to a given metamodel. This facilitates the definition of '''Higher Order Transformation'''s (HOTs)<ref>(See [[Eugene Syriani. Higher-Order Transformation, DSM-TP'10: Summer school on Domain-specfic Modelling. Lisbon (2010).]]</ref>){{Citation needed|date=August 2010}}, i.e. transformations taking other transformations as input and/or transformations producing other transformations as output.

Several [[model transformation language]]s (in short MTL) are presently available <ref>(See [[Model Transformation Language#Available transformation languages|list of available transformation languages]]</ref>
