    Leveraging Digital Trace Data to Investigate and Support Human-Centered Work Processes
    The ongoing digitization of processes in all domains of everyday life driven by IT systems shows great potential for process automation, analysis, and optimization. In the last decade process mining has advanced to an important and mature discipline of computer science research and has been widely adopted in industry. More recently,-acknowledging the huge potential of digital trace data to study processes-process science has been introduced as an interdisciplinary field studying how processes unfold over time. This paper discusses the potential that arises when using digital trace data not only in the context of highly automated processes but also to investigate humancentered (work) processes and elaborates on associated challenges. Examples range from the semi-automated storage and production processes in a smart factory to healthcare processes to process analysts performing process mining tasks and software engineers reading software artifacts like source code and process models.

    Like other analytic fields, process mining is complex and knowledge-intensive and, thus, requires the substantial involvement of human analysts. The analysis process unfolds into many steps, producing multiple results and artifacts that analysts need to validate, reproduce and potentially reuse. We propose a system supporting the validation, reproducibility, and reuse of analysis results via analytic provenance and data awareness. This aims at increasing the transparency and rigor of exploratory process mining analysis as a basis for its stepwise maturation. We outline the purpose of the system, describe the problems it addresses, derive requirements and propose a design satisfying these requirements. We then demonstrate the feasibility of the central aspects of the design.

    ProMiSE: Process Mining Support for End-Users
    In the past decade, process mining has gained momentum in academia and the industry, as it supports organizations in deriving insights from event data recorded from process executions. The increasing adoption of process mining in practice entails supporting process analysts in their work. Indeed, their analysis includes many exploratory tasks that require them to rely on their experience to interpret the data and steer the analysis. This knowledge-intensive nature of process mining can be challenging for less experienced analysts and calls for methodological and operational guidance tailored to their needs. In this paper, we present ProMiSE, a project funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation that embraces this novel direction in process mining research. The first goal of the project is to improve our understanding of how analysts work in practice, i.e., the process of process mining. Then, methodological guidance and software-based support are developed to assist novice analysts during their analysis. The results obtained in the first two years of ProMiSE have helped to build a solid empirical basis on process mining, laying the foundation for the development of user-centered support, which we will realize in the coming years with the help of our project partners and international collaborators.
