Welcome!
Welcome to my homepage! I am Minseok Song, a Professor at Department of Industrial & Management Engineering at POSTECH (Pohang University of Science and Technology). I am also the head of Open Innovation Big Data Center at POSTECH and an Associated Partner member of ERCIS(European Research Center for Information Systems). I’m an industrial engineer by training with a background in information systems and computer science. I also have enough data science and artificial intelligence expertise to solve engineering problems. My research interests include process mining, recommendation systems, business analytics, and industrial AI.
Research overview
My research goal is to create and apply new technologies and paradigms in IE/MS and IT disciplines to improve business processes in an organization. My main research topic is process mining which aims to analyze and improve business processes. In addition, my research interests include process simulation, healthcare information systems, manufacturing process analysis, and industrial AI.
I have published over 130 papers, including 50 journal articles. My publications have appeared in journals such as Decision Support Systems, Journal of Information Technology, Information Systems, International Journal of Medical Informatics, IEEE Transactions on Semiconductor Manufacturing, and Expert Systems with Applications.
I have conducted over 30 research projects (totaling $6 million) as a principal investigator and have applied industrial engineering principles and information technologies to various real-world problems. Substantial research grants include the EU Horizon 2020 (RISE-BPM) project with eight universities in Europe, Australia, South America, and Korea, an early-career researcher grant, and a mid-career researcher grant from the National Research Foundation of Korea. The methodology and software systems that I have developed are used in various organizations such as Samsung Electronics, Samsung C&T, POSCO, and Samsung Heavy Industry. I have also developed a process mining software system and transferred it to Puzzle Data for commercialization.
