Process Mining On The Web
Where do you look when you want to stay up to date in all things process mining? I have always found that the process mining community is quite scattered across the web, and it can be difficult to keep track of what is going on.
Here is my list of links that I find useful to stay up to date.
Groups and Discussions
-
The LinkedIn group on Process Mining is a good place to discuss and share all matters related to process mining. Right now, there are 269 members and if you are not one of them, I strongly encourage you to join the group!
-
The IEEE Task Force on Process Mining unites a variety of people (see Members page) to promote the research, development, education and understanding of process mining. You can keep an eye on what is happening there on the News and Events pages.
-
ProM and the Eindhoven-based process mining group have certainly been at the center of the process mining community all along. So, the ProM users mailing list is always a good place to stay up to date and get in touch (see also the archives).
-
In addition to the mailing list, particularly for technical questions related to ProM 5 and ProM 6, I recommend to use the ProM user forum. Joos Buijs takes great care of the forum, so you can be sure to get a reply if you post a question there1.
-
The process mining group at TU/e also keeps a record of process mining-related publications on their wiki here. And you can always search for scientific publications on process mining on Google Scholar or at CiteSeer.

Sandy Kemsly is a well-known BPM tech blogger and also writes about process mining on her Column 2 blog. You can find all process mining-related posts here.

And of course there is our blog, the Flux Capacitor, where we regularly write about process mining. If you like, you can be notified about new posts via email or RSS reader. This way, you don’t have to check manually whether there is something new.

Note that in this list I did not include all one-time articles ever written on process mining, or introductory material. Such a list would be much longer and could be worthwhile to put together in the future. ↩︎
