Abstract
A method includes receiving, from an origin computing node, a first communication addressed to multiple destination computing nodes in a processor interconnect fabric, measuring a first set of one or more communication metrics associated with a transmission path to one or more of the multiple destination computing nodes, and for each of the destination computing nodes, based on the set of communication metrics, selecting between a multicast transmission mode and unicast transmission mode as a transmission mode for transmitting the first communication to the destination computing node.
