Dynamic context-aware Business Process flexibility: an artefact-based approach using process mining

Abstract

Nowadays, enterprises and their business processes are becoming more dynamic. Business Processes (BPs) need to be able to adapt to changes in open business systems environments. This paper presents a new approach for BP flexibility based on context environments and artefacts. This approach enables a better reusability and exibility of independent BP modules in a context-aware run-time environment. We present a context-aware process mining framework where contexts will be automatically captured from execution environments to maximise the exibility of BPs. Process mining techniques are used to extract information from BP run-time. The reasoning about those information using artefact is shown.
