 processes in our society. The resulting software needs to evolve and can no longer be controlled a priori as is illustrated by a range of software problems. The 3TU.BSR research program will develop novel techniques and tools to analyze software systems in
 vivo - making it possible to visualize behavior, create models, check conformance, predict problems, and recommend corrective actions. To deal with Big Software on the Run (BSR), we propose to shift the main focus from a priori software design to a posteriori
 software analytics thereby exploiting the large amounts of event data generated by today's systems. The core idea is to study software systems in vivo, i.e., at runtime and in their natural habitat. We would like to understand the actual (desired or undesired)
 behavior of software. Running software needs to adapt to evolving and diverging environments and requirements. This forces us to consider software artifacts as "living organisms operating in changing ecosystem". This paradigm shift requires new forms of empirical
 investigation that go far beyond the common practice of collecting error messages and providing software updates. To take on this ambitious task leading Dutch groups in Data Science and Software Science have joined forces in the 3TU.BSR "Big Software on the

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#313131">The PhD will apply existing process mining techniques to events generated by software systems. Process models and user interface workflows underlie the functional specification of almost
 every substantial software system. However, these are often left implicit or are not kept consistent with the actual software development. When the system is utilized, user interaction with the system can be recorded in event logs. After applying process mining
 methods to logs, we can derive process and user interface workflow models. These models provide insights regarding the real usage of the software and can enable usability improvements and software redesign. In this project, we aim to develop process discovery
