Abstract
Methods, procedures, apparatuses, computer programs, computer-accessible mediums, processing arrangements and systems generally related to data multi-casting in a distributed processor architecture are described. Various implementations may include identifying a plurality of target instructions that are configured to receive a first message from a source; providing target routing instructions to the first message for each of the target instructions including selected information commonly shared by the target instructions; and, when two of the identified target instructions are located in different directions from one another relative to a router, replicating the first message and routing the replicated messages to each of the identified target instructions in the different directions. The providing target routing instructions may further comprise the selected information utilizing a subset of bits that is commonly shared by the target instructions and being identified as a left operand, right operand or predicate operand, and may include the selection of one of a plurality of multiple-instruction subsets of the target instructions.
