This paper describes a technique for recovering business processes by dynamic analysis of the Web applications which ex-pose them, which does not require full access to internal software artifacts, such as source code or doc-umentation.Abstract:
Business processes are often implemented by means of software systems which expose them to the user as an externally accessible Web application. This paper describes a technique for recovering business processes by dynamic analysis of the Web applications which ex-pose them. This approach does not require full access to internal software artifacts, such as source code or doc-umentation. The business process is instead inferred through analysis of the GUI-forms exercised by the user during the navigation in the Web application which ex-poses the process. The recovered process is then abstracted by clustering its business tasks according to structural or logical criteria.A preliminary experiment has been conducted with the aim of evaluating understandability and readability of the reverse engineered business processes.read more

Generating event logs from non-process-aware systems enabling business process mining
Ricardo Pérez-Castillo,Barbara Weber,Jakob Pinggera,Stefan Zugal,Ignacio García Rodríguez de Guzmán,Mario Piattini +5 more
TL;DR: A technique for obtaining event logs from traditional information systems (without any in-built logging functionality) by statically analysing and modifying LISs and allowing the modified systems to dynamically record event logs is presented.

Business process archeology using MARBLE
TL;DR: The proposed business process archeology method is less time-consuming and more exhaustive than a manual process redesign by experts from scratch and helps maintainers to extract the business knowledge needed for the system to evolve.

Software Reflexion Models: Bridging the Gap Between Source and High-Level Models
TL;DR: In this article, an approach that helps an engineer use a high-level model of the structure of an existing software system as a lens through which to see a model of that system's source code is presented.
