Process mining Process mining is a family of techniques for analyzing event data to understand and improve operational processes. Part of the fields of data science and Business_process_management, process management, process mining is generally built on Logging ...

aims to discover, monitor and improve processes by extracting knowledge from event logs representing actual process executions in a given setting. Process mining depends on the availability of accurate and unambiguous event logs, according to established standards. The purpose of this standard is to provide a generally acknowledged (

format for the interchange of event data between information systems in many applications domains on the one hand and analysis tools for such data on the other hand. As such, this standard aims to fix the syntax and the semantics of the event data which, for example, is being transferred from the site generating this data to the site analyzing this data. As a result of this standard, if the event data is transferred using the syntax as described by this standard, its semantics will be well understood and clear at both sites. IEEE 1849 was the second IEEE Standard Sponsored by the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society. The first was
