The IEEE Task Force on Process Mining was established in 2009 in the context of the Data Mining Technical Committee (DMTC) of the Computational Intelligence Society (CIS) of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers, Inc. (IEEE). Over 70 organizations are supporting the IEEE Task Force on Process Mining. On November 11th, 2016, the IEEE Standards Association officially published the XES Standard as IEEE Std 1849TM-2016: IEEE Standard for eXtensible Event Stream (XES) for Achieving Interoperability in Event Logs and Event Streams. The IEEE Task Force on Process Mining has been driving the standardization process for over six years, because the standard allows the exchange of event data between different process mining tools.
