A software system managing a smart space takes, among its inputs, models of human behavior; such models are usually difficult to obtain and to validate. The employment of techniques from business process modeling and mining may represent a solution to both the prob- lems, but a set of challenges need to be faced in order to cope with major differences between human activities and business processes. In this work we provide insights about these challenges, and propose further research activities to tackle them.
