Hi,

The instructions say

SimulationTools is available as a tar.gz file containing the SimulationTools application directory.  The SimulationTools directory should be placed in ~/Library/Mathematica/Applications on Mac OS, and ~/.Mathematica/Applications on Linux. 

Since you are using Linux on Edison, you need to place it in ~/.Mathematica/Application, which is in your home directory.

There are equivalent download instructions at

http://simulationtools.org/download.shtml <http://simulationtools.org/download.shtml>

which might clarify this.

And I tried directly load SimulationTools (maybe there is SimulationTools already installed in Edison, or maybe I can load SimulationTools even it is located in my home directory) like below:

Yes, that should fix the problem.

NX is good; that should be fast enough to use Mathematica remotely.

Good luck, and please keep asking questions if you need help!
