Computer science description: 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. publisher: ACM Press date: 2010 type: Article type: PeerReviewed format: application/pdf language: en identifier: http://eprints.imtlucca.it/1564/1/CPT_acr.pdf identifier: Cesari, Luca and Pugliese, Rosario and Tiezzi, Francesco A tool for rapid development of WS-BPEL applications.
