63		-* All references to EObjects are references to a copy of the original EObject. This allows to represent immutable mapping. To reidentify corresponding EObjects TransformationTreeExtensions provides search functions and matching functionality.
64		-* Models in TransformationTrees may be transient. This indicates that all references to EObjects in all Elements of the transient model are removed. Thus these models can't be source of a new appended transformation and can not be associated with it's original model. The main propose of this feature is to improve scalability of TransformationTrees by removing unnecessary references to internal model, but preserve traversing functionality of the ObjectMapping.
	65	+* All references to EObjects in EObjectWrapper are references to a copy of the original EObject. This allows to represent immutable mapping. To reidentify corresponding EObjects TransformationTreeExtensions provides search functions which will check for structural matching models.

	67	+* Mappings can be incomplete causing resulting transfromation tree to be incomplete. A incomplete tree does not represent every object in a model with a corresponding Element. This may break some paths of element transformations, but allows to omit model-immanent objects like annotations from mapping. TranformationMapping extension provies a function to check completeness of mapping against its models.

	73	+In this example we will perform some transformations on SCCharts.
	74	+
	75	+The source chart is a ABO, the "Hello World" of SCCharts.
	76	+
	77	+ABO is already a CoreSCChart, so we will perform normalization and a transformation to SCG.
	78	+
	79	+=== Creating Mapping during Transformation ===
	80	+
	81	+In order to note every single element transformation of a model transformation, we use the TransformationMapping extension.
	82	+
	83	+After each creation of new Objects for transformed model the mapping must be updated with it's origin information.

	223	+
	224	+
	225	+
	226	+The returned mapping is a multi mapping between all object in aboSCC and their resulting objects in aboSCG.
