elem.value
This will allow you to process the elem's in numerical order. I am assuming that is what you needed. Note that if you don't add the data-type attribute it will sort by string-value rather than in numerical order.

<xsl:template match="/">
 <root>
  <xsl:apply-templates select="//elem">
   <xsl:sort data-type="number" select="@value"/>
  </xsl:apply-templates>
  </root>
</xsl:template>

<!-- process elem's -->
<xsl:template match="elem">
 <newelem value="{@value}">
 </newelem>
</xsl:template>
