Fast responsive real-time monitoring of GMA-DED process signatures and their transient variations is required for printing of dimensionally accurate and structurally sound parts. A systematic experimental investigation is presented here on multi-layer GMA-DED with two different scanning strategies using a high strength low alloy (HSLA) filler wire. The dynamic metal transfer, melt pool temperature field and its longitudinal cross-section, and arc voltage and current are monitored synchronously. The transient arc heat input and the melt pool solidification cooling rate are estimated from the monitored signals. The layer-wise variations of the melt pool dimension, surface temperature profile, thermal cycles, and solidification cooling rate are examined for different scanning strategies. It is comprehended that the part defects can be minimized, and the mass production of zero-defect parts can be achieved in GMA-DED process with synchronized monitoring and assessment of the real-time process signatures.}, language = {en} } @article{RevinaAksu2023, author = {Revina, Aleksandra and Aksu, {\"U}nal}, title = {An approach for analyzing business process execution complexity based on textual data and event log}, series = {Information Systems}, journal = {Information Systems}, number = {114}, publisher = {Elsevier}, doi = {10.1016/j.is.2023.102184}, year = {2023}, abstract = {With the advent of digital transformation, organizations increasingly rely on various information systems to support their business processes (BPs). Recorded data, including textual data and event log, expand exponentially, complicating decision-making and posing new challenges for BP complexity analysis in Business Process Management (BPM). Herein, Process Mining (PM) serves to derive insights based on historic BP execution data, called event log. However, in PM, textual data is often neglected or limited to BP descriptions. Therefore, in this study, we propose a novel approach for analyzing BP execution complexity by combining textual data serving as an input at the BP start and event log. The approach is aimed at studying the connection between complexities obtained from these two data types. For textual data-based complexity, the approach employs a set of linguistic features. In our previous work, we have explored the design of linguistic features favorable for BP execution complexity prediction. Accordingly, we adapt and incorporate them into the proposed approach. Using these features, various machine learning techniques are applied to predict textual data-based complexity. Moreover, in this prediction, we show the adequacy of our linguistic features, which outperformed the linguistic features of a widely-used text analysis technique. To calculate event log-based complexity, the event log and relevant complexity metrics are used. Afterward, a correlation analysis of two complexities and an analysis of the significant differences in correlations are performed. The results serve to derive recommendations and insights for BP improvement. We apply the approach in the IT ticket handling process of the IT department of an academic institution. Our findings show that the suggested approach enables a comprehensive identification of BP redesign and improvement opportunities.}, language = {en} } @incollection{RevinaRizunAksu2023, author = {Revina, Aleksandra and Rizun, Nina and Aksu, {\"U}nal}, title = {Towards a Framework for Context Awareness Based on Textual Process Data: Case Study Insights}, series = {Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing}, booktitle = {Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing}, number = {466}, publisher = {Springer Cham}, isbn = {978-3-031-26885-4 (Print) 978-3-031-26886-1 (online)}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-26886-1_2}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Context awareness is critical for the successful execution of processes. In the abundance of business process management (BPM) research, frameworks exclusively devoted to extracting context from textual process data are scarce. With the deluge of textual data and its increasing value for organizations, it becomes essential to employ relevant text analytics techniques to increase the awareness of process workers, which is important for process execution. The present paper addresses this demand by developing a framework for context awareness based on process executions-related textual data using a well-established layered BPM context model. This framework combines and maps various text analytics techniques to the layers of the context model, aiming to increase the context awareness of process workers and facilitate informed decision-making. The framework is applied in an IT ticket processing case study. The findings show that contextual information obtained using our framework enriches the awareness of process workers regarding the process instance urgency, complexity, and upcoming tasks and assists in making decisions in terms of these aspects.}, language = {en} } @book{Tanski2023, author = {Tanski, Joachim}, title = {Compliance-Management}, edition = {1}, publisher = {Springer Gabler Wiesbaden}, isbn = {978-3-658-40681-3 (Softcover) 978-3-658-40682-0 (e-Book)}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-658-40682-0}, pages = {63}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Dieses Buch bietet eine komprimierte und praxisorientierte Einf{\"u}hrung in die Grundlagen und Anforderungen eines Compliance-Managements, um den Leser schnell mit aktuellen und zentralen Regelungen vertraut zu machen.
