Standardizing Process-Data Exploitation by Means of a Process-Instance Metamodel
The analysis of data produced by the enterprises during pro cesses execution is key to know how these processes are working and how
they can be improved. These data may be consumed to make different
types of analysis, for example, data could be used as input for process dis covery, decision-making and even process querying tools. However, each
type of analysis needs data in different formats because they use different
techniques and tackle the problem from a different point of view. Fortu nately, if we look at the data exploitation problem from a higher level of
abstraction perspective, we can realize that all the points of view share
a common ground: the business process model and its instantiation are
in the kernel of all of them. In this paper, we propose the use of a Busi ness Process Instance Metamodel, which serves as a common interface
to make independent the applications producing business process data
from those applications that consume and exploit it. A tool has been
implemented as a proof of concept to facilitate the matching between
data from different data sources and the metamodel.Ministerio de Ciencia y Tecnología TIN2015-63502-C3-2-RMinisterio de Ciencia y Tecnología TIN2016-75394-
