At the Dagstuhl seminar on Transformation Techniques in Software Engineering we had an organized discussion on the intricacies of engineering practicle connections between software analysis and software transformation tools. This abstract summarizes it. This discussion contributes mainly by explicitly focussing on this subject from a general perspective, and providing a first sketch of a domain analysis. First we discuss the solution space in general, and then we compare the merits of two entirely di®erent designs: the monolithic versus the heterogeneous approach.
