E-learning pedagogical models are described in terms of educational modeling languages (EMLs). IMS-LD is accepted as the standard EML. It allows for the description of multiactor adaptable learning processes. Although some IMS-LD-compatible editing tools are being developed, no delivery platfonn is yet available. This chapter proposes to bridge this gap by looking at business process modeling languages and execution engines, in particular the Workflow Management Coalition Standard, XPDL. The first two sections of the chapter give the introduction and the context of the work. Section 3 describes IMS-LD as well as existing editing and delivery tools. Section 4 describes XPDL and some editing tools and execution engines. Section 5 proposes a transformation from IMS-LD to XPDL, and Section 6 describes the application developed to implement this transfonnation. The chapter ends with some conclusions on the work done and on the possibilities it opens to further research and applications.
