ProcessProfiler3D: A Tool for Visualising Performance Differences Between Process Cohorts and Process Instances

An organisation’s event logs can give great insight into factors that affect the execution of their business processes by comparing different process cohorts. We have recently presented ProcessProfiler3D, a novel tool for such comparisons that supports interactive data exploration, automatic calculation of performance data and visual comparison of multiple cohorts. The approach enables the intuitive discovery of differences and trends in cohort performance. To better support the interpretation of these differences in the context of process execution we now extended the tool with a novel visualisation technique that enables the visualisation of case execution and timing in a way that provides context to such a performance analysis.
