Expected activity Instance count

View in library docs
eI(g)\mathit{e}\mathit{I}(g)
Dimension:
Time
Granularity:
Group of cases

Description

Expected number of times that any activity is instantiated in a case belonging to a group of cases.

Potential use

If the event log does not contain timestamps, Expected activity Instance count can be used as a proxy for the time performance of a group of cases.

Assumptions

A greater number of activity instances implies that a case takes longer to complete.

Desired Value:

MINIMIZE

Equations

Formula for practitioners

I(g)C(g)\frac{\mathit{I}(g)}{\mathit{C}(g)}

I(g)\mathit{I}(g) returns the activity instance count of group of cases gg.
C(g)\mathit{C}(g) returns the case count of group of cases gg.

Formal Definition

I(g)C(g)\frac{\mathit{I}(g)}{\mathit{C}(g)}
