A process mining is considered to support the discovery of business process for unstructured process model, and a process mining algorithm by using the associated rule and sequence pattern of data mining is developed to extract information about processes from event-log, and to discover process of alternative, concurrent and hidden activities. Some numerical examples are presented to show the effectiveness and efficiency of the algorithm.

Process mining is a useful methodology that can be used for extracting user patterns in log files in order to discover efficient or inefficient processes in organizations. In general, it is used to find and reduce differences between pre-defined processes and actually executed processes in an organization. In this paper, we propose a method to improve processes in PDM/PLM systems based on process mining. In order to improve and detect the inefficient processes, we gathered event logs from PDM/PLM systems and derived process models using several process mining techniques such as ${\alpha}$-algorithm mining, heuristics mining, and fuzzy miner. By comparing original process models with process mining results, it is possible to detect differences between predefined processes and real ones; thereby we can build improved process models for future application.

Process mining aims at mining valuable information from process execution results (called "event logs"). Even though process mining techniques have proven to be a valuable tool, the mining results from real process logs are usually too complex to interpret. The main cause that leads to complex models is the diversity of process logs. To address this issue, this paper proposes a trace clustering approach that splits a process log into homogeneous subsets and applies existing process mining techniques to each subset. Based on log profiles from a process log, the approach uses existing clustering techniques to derive clusters. Our approach are implemented in ProM framework. To illustrate this, a real-life case study is also presented.

Manufacturing process mining performs various data analyzes of performance on event logs that record production. That is, it analyzes the event log data accumulated in the information system and extracts useful information necessary for business execution. Process data analysis by process mining analyzes actual data extracted from manufacturing execution systems (MES) to enable accurate manufacturing process analysis. In order to continuously manage and improve manufacturing and manufacturing processes, there is a need to structure, monitor and analyze the processes, but there is a lack of suitable technology to use. The purpose of this research is to propose a manufacturing process analysis method using process mining and to establish a manufacturing process mining system by analyzing empirical data. In this research, the manufacturing process was analyzed by process mining technology using transaction data extracted from MES. A relationship model of the manufacturing process and equipment was derived, and various performance analyzes were performed on the derived process model from the viewpoint of work, equipment, and time. The results of this analysis are highly effective in shortening process lead times (bottleneck analysis, time analysis), improving productivity (throughput analysis), and reducing costs (equipment analysis).

The functions of stocking and releasing in logistics center consist of three major procedure such as receiving, shipping and stock managements. Each process includes various sub-processes which are complicatedly connected with each other. Furthermore, lots of operators execute various tasks in the different sub-processes, simultaneously. It makes difficult to standardize, monitor, and analyze the processes. This paper proposed the quantitative methodology using process mining approach to discover and analyze receiving and shipping processes. For this purpose, the PDA operation log data is analyzed to build a realistic process model. The deduced model has been compared with official process model. In addition, task assignment and social networks analysises are carried out by utilizing process mining tools. Also, it has been proposed how to improve the processes with the analytical simulation model based on the results of process mining.

Process mining is state-of-the-art technology in the workflow field. Recently, process mining becomes more important because of the fact that it shows the status of the actual behavior of the workflow model. However, as the process mining get focused and developed, the material of the process mining - workflow event log - also grows fast. Thus, the process mining algorithms cannot operate with some data because it is too large. To solve this problem, there should be a lightweight process mining algorithm, or the event log must be divided and processed partly. In this paper, we suggest a set of operations that control and edit XES based event logs for process mining. They are designed based on relational algebra, which is used in database management systems. We designed three operations for tailoring XES event logs. Select operation is an operation that gets specific attributes and excludes others. Thus, the output file has the same structure and contents of the original file, but each element has only the attributes user selected. Union operation makes two input XES files into one XES file. Two input files must be from the same process. As a result, the contents of the two files are integrated into one file. The final operation is a slice. It divides anXES file into several files by the number of traces. We will show the design methods and details below.

Process mining aims at extracting useful information from system log of business process execution. As process-aware information systems, such as BPMS, ERP, and SCM, spread, researches on process mining get more significance. In this paper, we propose the methodology of clustering process log before process mining and also present the prototype system. The proposed methodology can be used in accompany with the existing process mining algorithms to improve their performance. The process log clustering system PROCLE, presented in this paper, supports to classify the process instances in the system log in order to extract the appropriate level of process model according to the users' need. The proposed methodology was implemented on the open platform for process mining, ProM.

Previous studies of business process analysis have analyzed various factors such as task, customer service, operator convenience, and execution time prediction. To accurately analyze these factors, it is effective to utilize actual historical data recorded in information systems. Process mining is a technique for analyzing various elements of a business process from event log data. In this case study, process mining was applied to the transaction data of a purchase agency to analyze the business process of their procurement process, the execution time, and the operators.
