METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR OBTAINING CONSTRAINTS ON EVENTS
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for determining a constraint on an event, the method comprising:
- obtaining a correspondence between a goal and multiple candidate constraints associated with the event from multiple event sequences including the event, wherein each event sequence among the multiple event sequences is a series of historical events that are executed for achieving the goal;
identifying an impact on the goal of at least one part of candidate constraints among the multiple candidate constraints based on the correspondence; and
determining the at least one part of candidate constraints as the constraint in response to a metric of the impact satisfying a predefined condition.

Abstract
Method and apparatus for obtaining constraints on events. The method includes: obtaining a correspondence between a goal and multiple candidate constraints associated with the event from multiple event sequences including the event, wherein each event sequence among the multiple event sequences is a series of historical events that are executed for achieving the goal; identifying an impact on the goal of at least one part of candidate constraints among the multiple candidate constraints based on the correspondence; and in response to metric of the impact satisfying a predefined condition, determining the at least one part of candidate constraints as the constraint. An apparatus for determining a constraint on an event and a method and apparatus for generating a Case Management Model from multiple event sequences are also provided.
