Scientists are increasingly processing and analyzing experimental and observational data as workflows on Department of Energy (DOE) supercomputers. There is a need to optimize the performance of these data-intensive scientific workflows on supercomputing resources. However, there are not any well-established methods for analyzing and characterizing scientific workflows on high performance computing systems. In this talk, I am going to present our methodologies towards understanding and optimizing the performance of data-intensive scientific workflows on DOE supercomputers. We present a data-driven approach to analyze and influence the design of next-generation hardware and software infrastructure for efficiently managing workflows. The methods, models, and results presented in this talk are critical for analyzing and optimizing workflows well beyond the DOE ecosystem.
