      <p>With the increasing automation of business processes, growing amounts of process data
become available. This opens new research opportunities for business process data
analysis, mining and modeling. The aim of the IFIP 2.6 - International Symposium on
DataDriven Process Discovery and Analysis is to offer a forum where researchers from different
communities and the industry can share their insight in this hot new field.
Submissions aim at covering theoretical issues related to process representation,
discovery and analysis or provide practical and operational experiences in process
discovery and analysis. Language for papers and presentations is English. In this sixth
edition, 17 papers were submitted and 13 papers were accepted for publication in the
presymposium volume. According to the format of a symposium the discussion during the
event is considered a valuable element that can help to improve the quality of the results
proposed or the approach in presenting results. For this reason, authors of accepted
papers will be invited to submit extended versions of their articles to a post-symposium
volume of Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing, scheduled in 2017.
Our thanks go to the authors who submitted to the conference, to the board of reviewers
that made an deep work, and to those who participated in the organization or in the
promotion of this event.</p>
