This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Theory and Practice of Model Transformations, ICMT 2009, held at the ETH in Zurich, Switzerland, in June 2009. The 14 revised full papers and 3 revised short papers presented together with 1 invited lecture were carefully reviewed and selected from 67 submissions. The papers address questions about the nature and features of model transformations, their composability and combination to build new model transformations and implement high-level model management operations, the classification of languages for expressing transformations, the measurement of the quality and extra-functional requirements of model transformations, and the definition of development methodologies that allow exploiting all their potential benefits. The volume also contains the minutes of the GRACE International Meeting on Bidirectional Transformations, held in December 2009 near Tokyo, Japan.
