You can use ActorSelection, as illustrated in the register method of this
example:
http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/2.3.5/java/cluster-usage.html#Worker_Dial-in_Example

Note that you send messages to actors, running in the ActorSystem of the
cluster member. You don't send messages to the member.

You can use pub/sub:
