4TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON PROCESS MINING
ICPM 2022

Call for Papers
****************************************
The 4th International Conference on Process Mining will take place in a full week from October 23 to October 28, 2022, and is organized by the KRDB Research Centre for Knowledge of Data of the Faculty of Computer Science at the Free University of Bozen-Bolzano, Italy. The language of the conference is English, and its proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society. Papers presenting new methodologies, techniques and applications for process mining, as well as case studies coming from industrial scenarios are expected. Also, papers describing novel tools, fundamental research and empirical studies on process mining are sought. Selected accepted research papers will be considered for publication in an extended and revised form in a special issue of Information Systems (Elsevier).

****************************************
Paper Submission:

****************************************
Regular papers. Submissions must be original contributions that have not been published previously, nor submitted elsewhere
while being submitted to ICPM 2022. All files must be prepared using the latest IEEE Computational Intelligence Society
conference proceedings guidelines (8.5′′ × 11′′ two-column format). The page limit is set to 8 pages (IEEE Format). All papers
must be in English. Templates are available for Latex and Word here. The paper should be submitted through the following
link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icpm2022 selecting the “Research Track” option.

****************************************
Demo abstracts. The extended abstract should be submitted through the ICPM 2022 submission system, which is reachable at
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icpm2021 where one should select “ICPM Demo Track”. Demo abstracts must be no
longer than 2 pages in PDF format and must adhere to the guidelines of IEEE Computational Intelligence Society, using the 8.5″ ×
11″ two-column format. Templates are available for Latex and Word: https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html.
Accepted submissions will be published as CEUR proceedings. All demo submissions will be reviewed by the demo reviewing
committee. The reviewing committee will also vote on the best demo to be granted the ICPM 2022 Best Demo Award.

****************************************
Industry Day:
The ICPM Industry Day takes place on Wednesdy and serves as a forum that brings together industry and academia to exchange ideas and
experiences, and stimulate mutual cooperation. The target audience for that day includes business analysts, process managers, chief information
officers, chief operations officers, digital transformation managers, project managers, process consultants, and industrial researchers.
Workshops take place on Monday. Workshops facilitate the exchange of ideas and experiences among active researchers and vendors, and
stimulate discussions on new and emerging perspectives in Process Mining. All workshop papers will be published by Springer as a post-workshop
proceedings volume in the series Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing (LNBIP).

****************************************
Doctoral Consortium:
PhD students working in the area of Process Mining are invited to submit their proposals for participation in a Doctoral Consortium, which will be
held on Sunday, October 23, 2022. The manuscript must be written in English and prepared using the latest IEEE Computational Intelligence
Society conference proceedings guidelines (8.5″ × 11″ two-column format). The manuscript should not exceed the length of 2 pages and should be
submitted (as a PDF file) by midnight (AoE) by September 02, 2022 via the ICPM 2022 website on EasyChair (“Doctoral Consortium” track). The
accepted manuscripts will be published on a volume of CEUR-WS proceedings.
