Data sharing between hosts

Is there anyway to send data from host to another during generating network connectivity ?

For example if the number of process = 4, if have a list(of vectors) generated in host 0 . I want this list to be used by cells in host 1, host 2, host 3. Is there anyway to do this ?

Thanks in advance

ParallelContext class's post, take, and related methods might be useful in some contexts, but I don't know if/how they might be used in the course of simulating a distributed model of a network.

See the methods under

alltoall is the most flexible, but also the most difficult.
