MailOfMine - Analyzing mail messages for mining artful collaborative processes

Abstract

Artful processes are informal processes typically carried out by those people whose work is mental rather than physical (managers, professors, researchers, engineers, etc.), the so called "knowledge workers". In this paper we propose the MailOfMine approach, to automatically build, on top of a collection of email messages, a set of workflow models that represent the artful processes laying behind the knowledge workers activities. © 2012 IFIP International Federation for Information Processing.
