<div style>Minitrack: BUSINESS PROCESS INTELLIGENCE</div><div style><br></div><div style>According to a recent report by Gartner research, the market value in 2011 for business process management (BPM) technologies was $2.4 billion with a projected 9.65% growth rate up to 2016. The strong BPM technology market growth indicates BPM’s direct contribution to enterprise performance by achieving operational excellence and process agility and the increasing importance of BPM research. Business intelligence (BI) technologies have also gained increasing attention in recent years, which provide historical, current, and predictive views of business operations based on advanced data collection, extraction, and analysis of large data sets to improve business decision making. Recently, interesting and innovative concepts, technologies, and applications emerged from the intersection of BPM and BI disciplines. Examples are process mining, automatic process mapping, intelligent process configuration, and advanced process analytics, which can be collectively referred to as Business Process Intelligence (BPI). </div>
<div style><br></div><div style>BPI is still an emerging research discipline, which demands much more research effort to advance. In this minitrack, we are interested in innovative technologies, methodologies, and theories in business process intelligence.<br>
