abstract = {Scientific workflows have emerged as an important tool for
combining computational power with data analysis for all
scientific domains in e-science. They help scientists to
design and execute complex in silico experiments. However,
with increasing complexity it becomes more and more
infeasible to optimize scientific workflows by trial and
error. To address this issue, this paper describes the
design of a new optimization phase integrated in the
established scientific workflow life cycle. We have also
developed a flexible optimization application programming
interface (API) and have integrated it into a scientific
workflow management system. A sample plugin for parameter
optimization based on genetic algorithms illustrates, how
the API enables rapid implementation of concrete workflow
optimization methods. Finally, a use case taken from the
area of structural bioinformatics validates how the
optimization approach facilitates setup, execution and
monitoring of workflow parameter optimization in high
performance computing e-science environments.},
