Inter arrival time (between two instances)

Hello everybody,

Do you know how to extract the Inter arrival time (between two instances) using Prom6 or Prom lite. I need to know what kind of law is followed by the Inter arrival time (eg. Normal, Exponential, ...), with the mean and the standard deviation (if it follows a normal law, for example).

I need this information to run a simulation model using the information on processes extracted using process mining tools, e.g.  ProM.

Thank you in advance.

Best regards.

  • Dear,

    This, of course, depends a lot on the log you have at hand. Assuming you have a log where events carry timestamps, the default option would be to retrieve the timestamp for the first event of every trace, sort them, and create a distribution from this.

    I doubt that there is a plug-in readily available that will do this for you. At least, I do not know of such a plug-in.

    Kind regards,

    Eric.
