A bit more heavy handed, but another possibility is to create a client 
server application where the app runs locally and attaches to a server 
process on the machine running the simulation.  At my work we've done 
this using ssh and pipes for communication.  Another benefit is that the 
remote machine doesn't need to run an X application.

If you wanted something quick, then Robin Dunn's suggestion of using VNC 
is a good one.  I've used TightVNC with success.  It has a few more 
compression methods then other VNC solutions.
