【 摘 要 】

With the prevalence of business process management in the private and public sector, large process collections are created and shift into focus. To be able to harvest the underlying information, process collections need to be made easily accessible providing intuitive navigation and search. Process collections are often structured into folders that are labeled along functional, organizational or goal-based lines. As those structures are tediously created manually, they often offer only a single view on the underlying data. However, users use such process collections with different intentions. This paper presents a generic approach for automatically creating process architectures from unstructured process collection to offer browsing and user centered navigation structures, as well as reduce time of creation. The approach uses the characteristics of clustering algorithms to group processes and label them accordingly. Improvements for further development in the near future will be investigated and outlined as well.
