Abstract
Fundamentals such as event logs, cases, activities, and process variants are explained. Concrete examples show how Process Mining can be used for business transparency and value. Allowing full transparency based on event logs, the implications of this important change—away from perception based towards a fact-based process management—are discussed. The metaphor of an MRT is used to explain possibilities, benefits, and limitations of Process Mining.
