Abstract

Workflow mining algorithms are used to improve and/or refine design of existing workflows. Workflows are composed of sequential, parallel, conflict and iterative structures. In this paper we present results of experimental complexity study of the alpha workflow mining algorithm. We studied time and space complexity as dependent on workflow’s internal structure and on the number of workflow tasks.
