Abstract
In one embodiment, a method for sharing bandwidth in a data processing system having a plurality of locations includes splitting data into a plurality of data elements, sending each one of the plurality of data elements to a different location selected from the plurality of locations, wherein each data element is different, and sending a message to each of the locations. In another embodiment, a method for sharing bandwidth in a data processing system having a plurality of locations, wherein the plurality of locations comprises a first location and plurality of further locations, includes receiving a first data element, receiving a message, wherein the message comprises an address of each of the further locations, and sending the first data element to each of the further locations of the plurality of further locations, responsive to determining the address of each of the further locations.
