The application of conformance checking on the processes of this municipality is
discussed in more detail in [80]. For example, there it is shown that, despite the
presence of a WFM system, processes still deviate from the normative models. The
municipality was using eiStream WFM system (formerly known as Eastman Soft-
ware and today named Global 360), therefore, we did not expect any deviations.
However, as discussed in [80], process mining could reveal misconfigurations of the
WFM system. In [83], it is shown that, based on the event logs of this municipality,
it is possible to discover simulation models covering all perspectives (control-flow,
data dependencies, performance characteristics, and organizational characteristics).
In Sect. 8.6, we showed how these perspectives can be merged into a single CPN
model that can be simulated by CPN Tools. Although we did not conduct short-
term simulations for this municipality, the validation of the models described in
[83] shows that accurate simulations are possible for the selected process. Similarly,
we showed in [113] that accurate time predictions are possible for the WOZ process
of this municipality. In [113], various annotated transition systems are constructed
