N2 - This paper describes an approach to conduct large-scale parameter studies, where each data point in the study requires the execution of a whole scientific workflow. We show how a parameter studies system can be integrated with a workflow management system to seamlessly execute a large number of workflows, each with different input parameter values using large-scale computing infrastructure. The work is motivated by a need to collect performance-related data to conduct a sensitivity analysis in the context of relation between workflow input parameters and the performance of tasks in the workflow developed for the Spallation Neutron Source facility at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
