This question's explanation and your answers so far.
解説
問 17
- ア
正解 The correct answer is ア. Process mining is a method or tool that collects the actual operation logs (event logs) left in a business system and, based on that data, visualizes, analyzes, and monitors the business processes that were actually carried out. This makes it possible to objectively identify gaps between the intended procedures and reality, as well as bottlenecks and inefficient work, leading to business improvement. The description in ア states that it 'collects the operation logs of systems actually executed and identifies and improves issues through visualization, analysis, and monitoring of the current process,' which exactly matches the definition of process mining.
Incorrectイ
This describes BPR (Business Process Reengineering). It is an idea of fundamentally redesigning business processes without being bound by existing practices in order to improve efficiency, and it differs from process mining—which analyzes the current situation as data based on operation logs—in both purpose and means.
Incorrectウ
This describes text mining. It is a method of extracting and analyzing necessary information from a huge amount of text (unstructured text) data such as inquiry contents or SNS posts, and it differs from process mining—which visualizes the business process itself based on operation logs—in its target of analysis.
Incorrectエ
This describes the 'mining' of cryptocurrency. It is a means of obtaining cryptocurrency by performing a large amount of computation, and is unrelated to business process analysis. It is a trap that merely shares the word 'mining.'
ここがポイント
- Process mining = a method or tool that collects the actual operation logs (event logs) of a business system and visualizes, analyzes, and monitors the current business processes to identify issues and improve them.
- Distinguish confusingly similar terms: BPR (fundamental redesign of business processes), text mining (extracting information from a huge amount of text), and cryptocurrency mining (acquiring it through computation).
