The Process and Data Science (PADS) research group at RWTH Aachen University #processmining

Short promotion movie for the Process and Data Science (PADS) research group at RWTH Aachen University created for the online "Tag der Informatik 2020".

The Process and Data Science group, headed by Prof. Wil van der Aalst, is a research group at RWTH focusing on the interplay between processes and data. The scope of PADS includes all topics where discrete processes are analyzed, reengineered, and/or supported in a data-driven manner. Process-centricity is combined with an array of Data Science techniques (machine learning, data mining, visualization, and Big data infrastructures). The main focus is on Process Mining (including process discovery, conformance checking, performance analysis, predictive analytics, operational support, and process improvement). This is combined with neighboring disciplines such as operations research, algorithms, discrete event simulation, business process management, and workflow automation. The chair of PADS is the founder of the process mining discipline and one of the leading computer scientists in the world. The ambition is to realize scientific breakthroughs which will help organizations to turn event data into business and societal value.
