It's in Kay's "XSLT 2.0 and XPath 2.0 Programmer's Reference" as
"multiphase transformation".  That's probably the best single
explication.

Googling 'XSLT "multiphase transformation"' will get you a lot of hits.

So will "XSLT pipeline transformation"; you might find Jeni Tennison's
"Beginning XSLT" where there's a worked example of using Cocoon to do
overt pipeline processing.  (I think the terminology would consider
multiphase transformation to be a special case of pipelines.)

a thing.
