Auditing of Smart Contracts Through Process Mining

ABC is a novel methodology that exploits process mining techniques to evaluate smart contracts, and to support the work of the auditor.

The methodology has been applied on the list of transactions available on-line resulting from the execution of RotoHive, that is an on-line fantasy sport running weekly tournaments. The application has been implemented as a smart contract on the Ethreum blockchain, that provides a set of operations that a player can invoke to play in a tournament. In running process mining we apply three different algorithms: the HeuristicsMiner, the Inductive Miner, and the Split Miner.
