In this study, we contend that the relationship of resource with task is not sufficiently understood. Particularly, business intelligence based approaches to BPI have not adequately explored this relationship. To understand this, we classify resources into human and non-human resources, because the two types of resources behave differently leaving different impact on process performance. Subsequently, a set of relationships between human resources, non-human resources and tasks (named suitability, preference and competence) are presented. However, only human resource's relationship with non-human resource/s (named preference) is presented in detail, as a resource preference model. The model bundled with the presented preference evaluation method guides users for evaluation of resources' preference. The applicability of the method is illustrated through a healthcare case study. © 2014 IEEE. date: 2014 publisher: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84938807082&doi=10.1109%2fICCOINS.2014.6868408&partnerID=40&md5=94b64b5a79f151fb8b11b7db9e2dd808 id_number: 10.1109/ICCOINS.2014.6868408 full_text_status: none publication: 2014 International Conference on Computer and Information Sciences, ICCOINS 2014 - A Conference of World Engineering, Science and Technology Congress, ESTCON 2014 - Proceedings refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781479943913 citation: Sohail, A. and Dominic, P.D.D. and Shahzad, K.
