Dynamic process measurement and benchmarking

A process annotation system, comprising:

• a user interface generator that includes
• a recording player module configured to enable a user to interact with a recording of a process being performed included in a process instance,
• a process step tag module configured to enable the user to apply a process step tag indicating a process step selected from a plurality of process steps to a section of the recording, and
• an attributes applicator module configured to enable the user to apply an attribute value selected from a list of attribute values to the process instance;
• and
• wherein the user interface module is configured to generate annotation information associated with the process instance that includes the process step tag and the selected attribute value.

A computer program product comprising a computer-readable medium having computer program logic recorded thereon for enabling a processor to annotate a process instance, comprising:

• first computer program logic means for enabling the processor to enable a user to interact with a recording of a process being performed included in a process instance;
• second computer program logic means for enabling the processor to enable the user to apply a process step tag indicating a process step selected from a plurality of process steps to a section of the recording;
• third computer program logic means for enabling the processor to enable the user to apply an attribute value selected from a list of attribute values to the process instance;
• and
• fourth computer program logic means for enabling the processor to generate annotation information associated with the process instance that includes the process step tag and the selected attribute value.
