        abstract = {WS-BPEL is imposing itself as a standard for orchestration
of web services. However, there are still some well-known
difficulties that make programming in WS-BPEL a tricky
task. In this paper, we present BliteC, a software tool we
have developed for supporting a rapid and easy development
of WS-BPEL applications. BliteC translates service orches-
trations written in Blite, a formal language inspired to but
simpler than WS-BPEL, into readily executable WS-BPEL
programs. We illustrate our approach by means of a few
practical programming examples.}
