Patent attributes
Systems and methods for estimating capacity in an operational process are provided. In one embodiment, a method comprises collecting event logs from monitoring systems communicatively coupled to a computing device, each event log indicating an event occurring at a given time at a given activity within a process, measuring transition times between activities of the process from the event logs, calculating a capacity of an activity of the activities from the measured transition times, and generating an alert indicating the activity approaching or at a maximum capacity of the activity responsive to the capacity above a threshold. In this way, aspects of a process such as an operational process in need of attention may be rapidly identified and actions for resolution may be automatically recommended.
