OSCAR is just a collection of software packages that are automatically installed and configured to allow you to run parallel jobs on a cluster. Each cluster node is just a Linux box, however, so you can run any standard program on any individual node. If you are wanting to run a standard program in parallel, you will need to either write a parallel version (using MPI or PVM) or find one that is already written.
