PhD, Process Mining, Technische Universiteit Eindhoven, DL. 25.

The Architecture of Information Systems (AIS) of the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science of the Technische Universiteit Eindhoven (TU/e) and SAP AG are looking for a

***** PhD working on Process Mining in SAP *****

The AIS group is one of the leading groups in the exciting new field of process mining (www.processmining. org). Process mining techniques focus on process discovery (extracting process models from event logs), conformance checking (comparing normative models with the reality recorded in event logs), and extension
(extending models based on event logs). The work resulted in the development of the ProM framework that is widely used in industry and serves as a platform for new process mining techniques used by research groups all over the globe. Moreover, many of the techniques developed in the context of ProM have been embedded in commercial tools.

Colloque International

Éphémère et pérenne : l'ornementation végétale dans les décors à la Renaissance

Tant l'ornement que le jardin ont été bien travaillés dans les dernières années par l'histoire de l'art et les disciplines connexes et permettent désormais de mieux cerner des dossiers en jachère. A la croisée de ces
deux champs en effet, pousse le microcosme des motifs végétaux et floraux, et des espèces animales qui les habitent. Par leur biais la Nature s'introduit dans la demeure, couvrant les murs du sol au plafond, envahissant meubles et vaisselle ; elle se glisse jusque dans les pages des livres, s'épanouit sur les tissus, montant aux courtines, couvrant les lits, et s'animant sur les vêtements.
