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

Description

Expected sum of elapsed time between the start and complete events of all activity instances of a case belonging to a group of cases.

Potential use

Event log that contains lifecycle information for activity instances where the actual time spent executing them is of interest.

Assumptions

Minimizing service time is desirable.

Desired Value:

MINIMIZE

Equations

Formula for practitioners

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

ST(g)\mathit{ST}(g) returns the total service time accumulated across all cases in group gg.
C(g)\mathit{C}(g) returns the number of cases in group gg.

Formal Definition

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