Abstract
In the last decades, the society went from being predominantly analog to digital. This has had a significant impact on the way of doing new analyzes for business, communications, education, health, safety, among other areas of interest. This technological advance, in turn, represents one of the main challenges in today’s organizations. This is due to the need to extract information and value from the stored data, for example, to discover the real behavior of the operating processes registered in the information systems, and to define the way in which the resources interact with the process, that is, activities, roles, assignment rules, and priorities. This paper presents the proposal for the design of a method for the discovery of processes in the medical treatment of Mexican-origin women diagnosed with breast cancer. Disease caused by the uncontrolled growth of cells. These cells that are not necessary for the body could eventually form a cancerous tumor.
