Abstract
Object-centric process mining examines how processes interact with multiple co-evolving objects, and has gained great interest in recent years. However, object-centric event logs (OCELs) leave object relationships underspecified in several respects, especially if relationships are dynamic, i.e., they change over time. In this paper, we identify and formally define for the first time assumptions that allow to represent and manipulate dynamic relationships in OCELs in a semantically unambiguous way. We evaluate existing logs to show that our assumptions are often satisfied, ensuring full transparency of relationship semantics.
