. P. van der Aalst Abstract Increasingly organizations are using process mining to understand the way that operational processes are executed.
Process mining can be used to systematically drive innovation in a digitalized world. Next to the automated discovery of the real underlying process, there are process-mining techniques to analyze bottlenecks,
Dozens (if not hundreds) of process-mining techniques are available and their value has been proven in many case studies. However,
binds, and classifies data to create â€oeflat†event logs that can be analyzed using traditional process-mining techniques.
Today, there are many mature process-mining techniques that can be used directly in everyday practice (Aalst, 2011.
Disco (Fluxicon), Perceptive Process Mining (Perceptive Software, before Futura Reflect and BPMONE by Pallas athena), ARIS Process Performance Manager (SOFTWARE AG), Celonis Process Mining (Celonis Gmbh
Despite the abundance of powerful process-mining techniques and success stories in a variety of application domains, 2 a limiting factor is the preparation of event data.
In fact, whenever possible, process-mining techniques use extra information such as the resource (i e.,, person or device) executing
, typically the audit trail provided by the system can directly be used as input for process mining.
Extracting Event Data from Databases to Unleash Process Mining 107 technology often provides so called â€oeredo logs†that can be used to reconstruct the history of database updates.
To understand why process-mining techniques need â€oeflat event logs†(i e. event logs with ordered events that explicitly refer to cases
First, we introduce process mining in a somewhat more detailed form (Sect. 2). Section 3 presents twelve guidelines for logging.
The results serve as input for conventional process-mining techniques. Section 7 discusses related work
and Sect. 8 concludes this paper. 2 Process Mining Process mining aims to discover, monitor and improve real processes by extracting knowledge from event logs readily available in today†s information systems (Aalst,
2011). 108 W. M. P. van der Aalst Normally, â€oeflat†event logs serve as the starting point for process mining.
For example, many process-mining techniques use extra information such as the resource (i e.,, person or device) executing
We refer to the XES standard (IEEE Task force on Process Mining 2013b) for more information on the data possibly available in event logs.
Flat event logs such as the one shown in Table 1 can be used to conduct four types of process mining (Aalst, 2011.
Process discovery is the most prominent process-mining technique. For many organizations it is surprising to see that existing techniques are indeed able to discover real processes merely based on example behaviors stored in event logs. •The second type of process mining is conformance.
this third type of process mining aims at changing or extending the a priori model. For instance, by using timestamps in the event log one can extend the model to show bottlenecks, service levels,
either discovered through process mining or (partly) made by hand, one can check, predict, or recommend activities for running cases in an online setting.
Extracting Event Data from Databases to Unleash Process Mining 109 The Prom framework provides an open source process-mining infrastructure.
Over the last decade hundreds of plug-ins have been developed covering the whole process-mining spectrum. Prom is intended for process-mining experts.
Non-experts may have difficulties using the tool due to its extensive functionality. Commercial process-mining tools such as Disco, Perceptive Process Mining, ARIS Process Performance Manager, Celonis Process Mining, QPR Processanalyzer, Fujitsu Interstage
Process Discovery, Stereologic Discovery Analyst, and XMANALYZER are typically easier to use because of their restricted functionality.
Figure 1 shows four screenshots of process-mining tools analyzing the same event Log in this paper,
we neither elaborate on the different process-mining techniques nor do we discuss specific process-mining tools.
Instead, we focus on the event data used for process mining. 3 Guidelines for Logging The focus of this paper is on the input side of process mining:
Such an event log can be used as input for a wealth of process-mining techniques.
The guidelines for logging (GL1€ GL12) aim to create a good starting point for process mining.

For comparative process mining, it is vital that the same logging principles are used. If for some groups of cases, some events are recorded not
Reproducibility is key for process mining. For example, do not remove a student from the database after he dropped out since this may lead to misleading analysis results.
The main purpose of the guidelines is to point to problems related to the input of process mining.
In fact, for most process-mining projects event data need to be extracted from conventional databases. This is often done in an ad hoc manner.
The event model relates coherent set of changes to the underlying database to events used for process mining.

and Classify Process-mining techniques require as input a â€oeflat†event log and not a change log as described in Definition 10.
Table 1 shows the kind of input data that process-mining techniques expect. Such a conventional flat event log is a collection of events where each event has the following properties:
Dedicated process-mining formats like XES or MXML allow for the storage of such event data.
To be able to use existing process-mining techniques we need to be able to extract flat event logs
into a collection of conventional events logs that serve as input for existing process-mining techniques.
one may convert it into a conventional event by Extracting Event Data from Databases to Unleash Process Mining 121 taking tsi as timestamp and eni as activity.
and compare the process-mining results. To allow for comparative process mining, process instances are classified using a relation class ï¿
PI ï¿CL with CL the set of classes. Consider for example the study process of students taking a particular course.
In (Aalst, 2013b), the notion of process cubes was proposed to allow for comparative process mining. In a process cube events are organized using different dimensions.
and drill-down process-mining results efficiently. As mentioned before, we deliberately remain at the conceptual level
and classify†approach allows for the transformation of database updates into events populating process cubes that can be used for a variety of process-mining analyses. 7 Related Work The reader is referred to (Aalst, 2011) for an introduction
to process mining. Alternatively, one can consult the Process Mining Manifesto (IEEE Task force on Process Mining, 2011) for best practices and the main challenges in process mining.
Next to the automated discovery of the underlying process based on raw Extracting Event Data from Databases to Unleash Process Mining 123 event data,
there are process-mining techniques to analyze bottlenecks, to uncover hidden inefficiencies, to check compliance, to explain deviations,
Dozens (if not hundreds) of process-mining techniques are available and their value has been proven in many case studies. For example, dozens of process discovery (Aalst, 2011;

Probably, there are process-mining case-studies using redo/transaction logs from database management systems like Oracle RDBMS, Microsoft SQL SERVER, IBM DB2,

We present two emerging techniques†deviance mining and predictive moni-toring†that leverage information hidden in business process execution logs
or negative deviance (deviance mining) and by continuously estimating the probability that ongoing process executions may lead to undesirable outcomes (predictive monitoring).
In the following section, we outline the architecture of a monitoring system integrating deviance mining and predictive monitoring.

Wynn, Ouyang, ter Hofstede, and Van dijk (2013. In this case, a team of analysts sought to find the reasons why certain simple claims that should normally be handled within a few days were taking substantially longer to be resolved.
Another case study showing the potential of deviance mining, this time in the healthcare domain, is reported by Lakshmanan, Rozsnyai, and Wang (2013).
The observations made using sequence mining were complemented with additional observations obtained by comparing a process model discovered from cases with positive outcomes with the model obtained for cases with negative outcomes.
The techniques they employ fall under a wider family of techniques known as discriminative sequence mining techniques (Lo, Cheng, & Lucia

Enabling Process Innovation via Deviance Mining and Predictive Monitoring 151 Other approaches focus on generating predictions to reduce risks.
In this setting, we position deviance mining and predictive monitoring as two keystones in modern business process support systems.
However, while deviance mining tries to do this off-line (by analyzing process logs), predictive monitoring provides feedback on the fly-fly to prevent violations.
