Method for generating an event log
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for generating, in a computer system having a processor and a storage means operatively coupled to the processor, an event log from raw data stored in a source system, wherein the raw data comprise digital traces of processes executed with the source system,wherein the method comprises(a) providing at least one process sensor to the processor, wherein the at least one process sensor comprises at least one sensor statement and wherein the at least one process sensor is executed by executing at least one sensor statement of the at least one process sensor,(b) executing, by the processor, the at least one process sensor provided to the processor by executing the at least one sensor statement of the at least one process sensor, wherein the at least one process sensor derives process data from the raw data stored with the source system, wherein the process data comprises at least one process element, wherein the process element represents a process executed with the source system, and the at least one process element comprises at least one process step, andgenerates data from the derived process data, the generated data comprising:
- unique identifiers of process elements,identifiers of process steps which are assigned to the process elements, andan order of the process steps,(c) storing, by the processor, the generated data as an event log with the storage means according to a predetermined data structure, the predetermined data structure comprising at leasta first attribute for storing the unique identifier of the process element of the respective process step,a second attribute for storing the identifier of the respective process step, anda third attribute for storing the order of the process steps within a process element, and(d) providing the event log stored with the storage means to a process mining system for analyzing and reconstructing the process executed with the source system.

Abstract
A computer-implemented method is provided for generating an event log from raw data stored in a source system, wherein a processor is provided with a process sensor and the process sensor derives process data from the raw data, wherein the process data comprises at least one process element which comprises at least one process step. The process sensor further generates unique identifies of process elements, identifiers of process steps which are assigned to the process elements, and an order of the process steps, and stores the generated data as an event log according to a predetermined data structure.
