bupaRflow: A Workflow Interface for bupaR

Abstract

In recent years, the open-source process analytics tool bupaR has seen a significant increase in usage. Among the advantages are its functional programming design – making it inherently suitable for interactive data analysis – and its reproducibility. However, writing scripts is still out of the comfort zone for many professionals who might benefit from the insights of process analysis. In order to make bupaR accessible to a wider audience, this paper presents bupaRflow, a graphical interface on top of bupaR that combines the workflow paradigm with an analytical building block architecture.
