This chapter treats the movement that marks, affects, and transforms any part of business and society. It is about big data that is creating, and the value generating that companies, startups, and entrepreneurs have to derive through sophisticated methods and advanced tools. This chapter suggests that analytics can be of crucial importance for business and entrepreneurial practices if correctly aligned with business process needs and can also lead to significant improvement of their performance and quality of the decisions they make. So, the main purpose of this chapter are exploring why small business, entrepreneur, and startups have to use data analytics and how they can integrate, operationally, analytics methods to extract value and create new opportunities.

Abstract Typical player management processes focus on managing an athlete’s physical, physiological, psychological, technical and tactical preparation and performance. Current literature illustrates limited attempts to optimize such processes in sports. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the application of Business Process Management (BPM) in healthcare (a service industry resembling sports) and formulate a model to optimize data driven player management processes in professional sports. A systematic review, adhering to PRISMA framework was conducted on articles extracted from seven databases, focused on using BPM to digitally optimize patient related healthcare processes. Literature reviews by authors was the main mode of healthcare process identification for BPM interventions. Interviews with process owners followed by process modelling were common modes of process discovery. Stakeholder and value-based analysis highlighted potential optimization areas. In most articles, details on process redesign strategies were not explicitly provided. New digital system developments and implementation of Business Process Management Systems were common. Optimized processes were evaluated using usability assessments and pre-post statistical analysis of key process performance indicators. However, the scientific rigor of most experiments designed for such latter evaluations were suboptimal. From the findings, a stepwise approach to optimize data driven player management processes in professional sports has been proposed.

A generative model is a statistical model capable of generating new data instances from previously observed ones. In the context of business processes, a generative model creates new execution traces from a set of historical traces, also known as an event log. Two types of generative business process models have been developed in previous work: data-driven simulation models and deep learning models. Until now, these two approaches have evolved independently, and their relative performance has not been studied. This paper fills this gap by empirically comparing a data-driven simulation approach with multiple deep learning approaches for building generative business process models. The study sheds light on the relative strengths of these two approaches and raises the prospect of developing hybrid approaches that combine these strengths.

Centralized business process execution engines are not adequate to guarantee smooth process execution in the presence of multiple, concurrent, long-running process instances exchanging voluminous data. In the centralized architecture of most BPEL engine solutions, the execution of BPEL processes is performed in a closed runtime environment where process instances are isolated from each other, as well as from any other potential sources of information. This prevents processes from finding relative data at runtime to adapt their behavior in a dynamic manner. The goal of this chapter is to present a solution for the performance improvement of BPEL engines by using a distributed architecture that enables the scalable execution of service-oriented processes, while also supporting their data-driven adaptation. The authors propose a decentralized BPEL engine architecture using a hypercube peer-to-peer topology with data-driven adaptation capabilities that incorporates Artificial Intelligence (AI) planning and context-aware computing techniques to support the discovery of process execution paths at deployment time and improve the overall throughput of the execution infrastructure. The proposed solution is part of the runtime infrastructure that was developed for the environmental science industry to support the efficient execution and monitoring of service-oriented environmental science models.
