| Interprocess Communication and Networking |

| |
| The modules described in this chapter provide mechanisms for different processes |
| to communicate. |
| |
| Some modules only work for two processes that are on the same machine, e.g. |
| :mod:`signal` and :mod:`subprocess`. Other modules support networking protocols |
| that two or more processes can used to communicate across machines. |
| |
| The list of modules described in this chapter is: |
