  A typed model of strategic term rewriting is developed. The key innovation is
that generic traversal is covered. To this end, we define a typed rewriting
calculus S'_{gamma}. The calculus employs a many-sorted type system extended by
designated generic strategy types gamma. We consider two generic strategy
types, namely the types of type-preserving and type-unifying strategies.
S'_{gamma} offers traversal combinators to construct traversals or schemes
thereof from many-sorted and generic strategies. The traversal combinators
model different forms of one-step traversal, that is, they process the
immediate subterms of a given term without anticipating any scheme of recursion
into terms. To inhabit generic types, we need to add a fundamental combinator
to lift a many-sorted strategy $s$ to a generic type gamma. This step is called
strategy extension. The semantics of the corresponding combinator states that s
is only applied if the type of the term at hand fits, otherwise the extended
strategy fails. This approach dictates that the semantics of strategy
application must be type-dependent to a certain extent. Typed strategic term
rewriting with coverage of generic term traversal is a simple but expressive
model of generic programming. It has applications in program transformation and
program analysis.
