Do you know what the OS is, at least? Can you, for instance, create a
virtual machine on your home system that matches the OS? As long as
it's broadly the same CPU architecture, chances are it'll run (maybe
it won't be completely optimal, but it'd be a start); in any case,
it's another possibility to try.

(Is the supercomputer doing something with DNA, and that's why you
picked your email address?)
