Abstract :Increasing amount of data enables researchers the opportunity of applying new scientific methods to manage and visualize the systems and processes. Process mining is an emerging tool for discovering real processes using event data of complex systems such as communication, information, health care systems, transportation and etc. Emergency Medical Service insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(EMS); system is an integral part of health care systems and aims to respond cases on time in order to decrease mortality. Although the EMS system process is assumed to be known, related data may indicate some deviations from the real process. Aim of this study is to discover and visualize EMS system in Adana city, in Turkey. EMS system event logs are filtered and visualized by using plug-ins in ProM platform such as Simple Heuristic Filtering plug-in and Log visualizer, respectively. Other plug-ins such as Fuzzy Miner and Inductive Miner are used for discovering process model. The deviations are obtained in EMS system process model showing irregular or rare events that cannot be representable throughout the process. The results indicate that the process of transportation between hospitals should be investigated in order to improve the process of Adana EMS system.
