Abstract
Service Oriented Architecture is an increasingly popular approach to implement complex distributed systems. It enables implementing complex functionality just by composing simple services into so called business processes. Unfortunately, such composition of services may lead to some incorrect system behavior. In order discover such depreciances and fix them, process mining methods may be used. Unfortunately, the current state of the art focuses only on SOAP-based Web Services leaving RESTful Web Service (resource-oriented) unsupported. In this article the relevance of adapting the Web Service Mining methods to new resource-oriented domain is introduced with initial work on process discovery in such systems.
