dc.description.abstract	The structural parameters of the Large Magellanic Cloud and the Small Magellanic Cloud are derived from the study of di erent stellar populations, such as, Cepheids (age 100 Myr), Red Clump stars (age 2-9 Gyr) and RR Lyrae stars (age > 9 Gyr). The structural changes of these galaxies as a function of time are identified and the processes which are responsible for these changes are discussed. The formation and early evolution of these two galaxies are found to be di erent.	en
