Choreographic models express coordination between business roles, in contrast to standard process models that merge local control flow and communication between parties. A choreography is realizable, also known as endpoint projectable, if the independent behaviour of each role in composition with other roles, only behaves exactly in the same way as described in the choreography. We introduce a novel choreographic language expressing safety and liveness properties, incorporating multi-perspective constraints in communication flows, data, and time. This language builds upon recent developments in declarative choreographies using the Dynamic Condition Response (DCR) graph formalism and extends it to accommodate data and time. The interaction between multiple dimensions can render models unrealizable, so we determine the conditions required for realizability through causal relationships within multi-perspective declarative choreographies. This way, realizable choreographies are guaranteed freedom of conflicts in the message exchanges that otherwise can lead to deadlocks.

process mining techniques relate observed behavior to modeled behavior, e.g., the automatic discovery of a Petri net based on an event log. process mining is not limited to process discovery and also includes conformance checking. Conformance checking techniques are used for evaluating the quality of discovered process models and to diagnose deviations from some normative model (e.g., to check compliance). Existing conformance checking approaches typically focus on the control-flow, thus being unable to diagnose deviations concerning data. This paper proposes a technique to check the conformance of data-aware process models. We use so-called Petri nets with Data to model data variables, guards, and read/write actions. Data-aware conformance checking problem may be very time consuming and sometimes even intractable when there are many transitions and data variables. Therefore, we propose a technique to decompose large data-aware conformance checking problems into smaller problems that can be solved more efficiently. We provide a general correctness result showing that decomposition does not influence the outcome of conformance checking. The approach is supported through ProM plug-ins and experimental results show significant performance improvements. Experiments have also been conducted with a real-life case study, thus showing that the approach is also relevant in real business settings.
