triggering events "over the wire" in .net

I need a way to trigger events on remote processes "over the wire" and pass parameters (xml serialization, whatever). I want to be able to do things like this.

foreach(childClient c in clientList)
{
    MyEvent += c.EventHandler;
}

MyEvent("param");

what technologies are good for this? WCF?

This is a small deployment in house software project so minimal overhead in design is a plus, doesn't have to be "fast" and won't handle large amounts of traffic.

There are a number of ways of doing this, but WCF is the best match for .NET code. If you are in-house then hopefully firewalls, etc aren't too much of a concern, and you can use the NET.TCP bindings which are full duplex. You want to read up on callback contracts.

There are a number of examples out there, such as this one.
