Abstract

Execution of a process model produces data that can be used for analysis and optimization of business processes. For several years, data warehouse (DW) technology has been used for analysis and decision making. A data warehouse developed for business processes is called a process warehouse. The capabilities of a process warehouse are seldom evaluated, since a generic framework that can be used for the evaluation is missing. Therefore, in this paper, we develop a generic framework called Process Analysis Framework (PAF) that can be used for evaluating analysis capabilities of a process warehouse. Furthermore, the framework has been used to evaluate various process warehousing approaches, collected through a comprehensive survey.
