7.2 Activities in the sample
The activities defined in BPEL4WS are divided into basic activities and
structured activities.
The
basic activities within a business process are used to define tasks; the
structured activities are used to manage the complexity of the business process.
Hence, a
basic activity can be compared to be a step while a structured activity
is a programming construct in the business process.

the BPEL Extensions to enhance WebSphere Process Choreographer.
