You could do it with SSH. A command like
ssh machine_a run_job_a1.py
will not terminate until the execution of run_job_a1.py on the remote
machine has terminated. So you end up with a lot of "proxy" subprocesses,
if you like, on the master machine, each one waiting for a remote process
on some master machine to terminate. As the controlling process notices the
termination of each proxy process, it looks to see which slave machine that
maps to, and sends another command to start the next job on that machine.
