Embed a web server into the long-running bit.  The use your browser at home to
monitor or control the simulation.  I haven't yet used it, but David Beazley's
(of SWIG fame) SWILL project looks promising:

Or you could use your favorite scripting language, which probably already has a
library providing a simple web server.
