Daniel Deutch, Tova Milo · 2009
A Business Process (BP) consists of some business activities undertaken by one or more organizations in pursuit of some business goal. Tools for querying and analyzing BP specifications are extremely valuable for companies. In particular, given a BP specification, identifying the top-k flows that are most likely to occur in practice, out of those satisfying a given query criteria, is crucial for various applications such as personalized advertizement and BP web-site design.
