The process mining landscape is evolving rapidly - both in industry and in research. But our education has not kept up. The "(still) very successful "original" Process Mining MOOC Process Mining in Action has been extremely successful in teaching the foundations of Process Mining to a broad audience of practitioners, students, and researchers aiming to … Continue reading Online Course on Multi-Dimensional Process Analysis
This post summarizes my talk on “Data Storage vs Data Semantics for Object-Centric Event Data” I gave at the XES symposium at the ICPM 2022 conference. I first provide a bit of background and the problem we faced, before I turn to the issue of separating data storage from data semantics. Background Process Mining analysis … Continue reading Data Storage vs Data Semantics for Object-Centric Event Data
Also this year, we are organizing the 3rd International workshop on Event Data and Behavioral Analytics (EdbA’22) at the ICPM’22. Part of our workshop philosophy is to dedicate half of the time to open discussions on the topics of the workshop. The discussion often turns to what makes the problems we are looking at difficult … Continue reading The hidden assumptions and forgotten topics of Process Mining, part 2 (Deviations, Patterns, Features)
Classical event logs have the fundamental shortcoming of describing process behavior only in isolated process executions from the viewpoint of a single case entity. Most real-life processes involve multiple entities and process executions are not isolated but tightly connected - through actors and entities involved in multiple executions. This post summarizes how event graphs are … Continue reading How do Event Graphs help analyzing Event Data over Multiple Entities?
Process Mining over multiple perspectives, dimensions, objects, entities, abstraction levels, etc. is gaining a lot of attention in the process mining field in 2021. If you want to learn more about the emerging topics in Multi... Process Mining, this short guide has you covered for the workshop day (1st Nov 2021) of the 3rd International … Continue reading Guide to Multi… Process Mining talks at ICPM 2021 workshops
Dirk Fahland I am trying to sketch the landscape of describing, analyzing, and managing processes outside the well-established paradigm of a "BPMN process" where a process is executed in instances, and each instance is completely isolated from all other instances. Thinking about Processes Let me introduce the term "process thinking". Process-thinking is the fundamental paradigm … Continue reading Multi-Dimensional Process Thinking
