Thanks. I'll look into it and let you know if I have any questions.

Hello,
I have done some work in VTK towards that. Currently, this works only
with structured data.
If your data is structured, you can use vtkPStructuredGridConnectivity
to generate a bitmask (an unsigned char associated with each mesh
node). The bitmask can then be queried using the vtkGhostArray (See
http://www.vtk.org/doc/nightly/html/classvtkGhostArray.html) to see
which properties are "turned on" for the given mesh node. If the
IGNORE property is ON, that means that the node is a duplicate with
respect to the given process and should not be taken into account. The
implementation assigns ownership to the lowest rank of a mesh node --
on all other processes, the IGNORE property is set to ON.
TestPStructuredGridConnectivity illustrates how this can be used. The
test ensures that:
(1) Ensuring that the total number of nodes computed is invariant to
the number of processes/partitions
(2) Ensuring that computing the average for a given field is also
invariant to the numer of processes/partitions
If this could be useful in your work, I can elaborate more if you have
any questions on how to use it.
Best,
George
