Workflow Process Mining Based On The Frequent Growth

Workflow management system requires the explicit design of the workflows that can express the business process. Generally speak creating a process design is very time-consuming and error prone. Process mining aims at extracting information from event logs to capture the business process as it is being executed, and it is very convenient to design the Workflow management system.The workflow is a computer model that can show the business process. It builds for supporting the carrying out operation process integration and process mobilization under the advanced computer environment, at the same time it can be implemented by the workflow management system. The workflow life cycle consists of four phases: workflow design, workflow configuration, workflow enactment and workflow diagnosis. In the traditional approach the design phase is used for constructing a workflow model, which is typically done by a business consultant and is driven by ideas of management on improving the business processes at hand. Creating a workflow design is complicated time-consuming process and typically there are discrepancies between the actual workflow processes and the processes as perceived by the management.The workflow mining technology is not just a tool of workflow design, but also it is very useful for understanding the current business processes. The goal of workflow mining is to reverse the process and collect the data at runtime to support workflow design and analysis. Since the information construction has been carried on in many organizations for several years, the organizations have their own information systems, such as MIS, ERP and CRM. In most information systems transactional data is registered. The information collected at run-time can be used to derive a model explaining the events recordedThe beginning of workflow mining is to collect and format the workflow log. The paper defined the workflow log as a set of task series. The definition contains the necessary information of the log with a simple format. We also defined the related conceptions.At present it is a challenge to exploit more information in a set of workflow log. The former workflow mining methods typically take the workflow as a whole. But in practice...
