| description |
Modern enterprises increasingly use the workflow paradigm to
prescribe how business processes should be performed. Processes are
typically modeled as annotated activity graphs. We present an
approach for a system that constructs process models from logs of
past, unstructured executions of the given process. The graph so
produced conforms to the dependencies and past executions present in
the log. By providing models that capture the previous executions of
the process, this technique allows easier introduction of a workflow
system and evaluation and evolution of existing process models. We
also present results from applying the algorithm to synthetic data
sets as well as process logs obtained from an IBM Flowmark
installation.
