In this paper we propose an algorithm for generating role-performer bipartite matrix for analyzing BPM-based human resource affiliations. Firstly, the proposed algorithm conducts the extraction of role-performer affiliation relationships from ICN(Infromation Contorl Net) based business process models. Then, the role-performer bipartite matrix is constructed in the final step of the algorithm. Conclusively, the bipartite matrix generated through the proposed algorithm ought to be used as the fundamental data structure for discovering the role-performer affiliation networking knowledge, and by using a variety of social network analysis techniques it enables us to acquire valuable analysis results about BPM-based human resource affiliations.

In this paper, we propose a new type of process discovery framework, which is named as control-path-driven process group discovery framework, to be used for process mining and process reengineering in supporting life-cycle management of business process models. In addition, we develop a process mining system based on the proposed framework and perform experimental verification through it. The process execution event logs applied to the experimental effectiveness and verification are specially defined as Process BIG-Logs, and we use it as the input datasets for the proposed discovery framework. As an eventual goal of this paper, we design and implement a control path-driven process group discovery algorithm and framework that is improved from the ρ-algorithm, and we try to verify the functional correctness of the proposed algorithm and framework by using the implemented system with a BIG-Log dataset. Note that all the process mining algorithm, framework, and system developed in this paper are based on the structural information control net process modeling methodology.

In this paper, we propose a MapReduce-supported clustering technique for collecting and classifying distributed workflow enactment event logs as a preprocessing tool. Especially, we would call the distributed workflow enactment event logs as Workflow BIG-Logs, because they are satisfied with as well as well-fitted to the 5V properties of BIG-Data like Volume, Velocity, Variety, Veracity and Value. The clustering technique we develop in this paper is intentionally devised for the preprocessing phase of a specific workflow process mining and analysis algorithm based upon the workflow BIG-Logs. In other words, It uses the Map-Reduce framework as a Workflow BIG-Logs processing platform, it supports the IEEE XES standard data format, and it is eventually dedicated for the preprocessing phase of the ${\rho}$-Algorithm that is a typical workflow process mining algorithm based on the structured information control nets. More precisely, The Workflow BIG-Logs can be classified into two types: of activity-based clustering patterns and performer-based clustering patterns, and we try to implement an activity-based clustering pattern algorithm based upon the Map-Reduce framework. Finally, we try to verify the proposed clustering technique by carrying out an experimental study on the workflow enactment event log dataset released by the BPI Challenges.
