LOW LATENCY DYNAMIC ROUTE SELECTION

Communicating among cores in a computing system comprising a plurality of cores, each core comprising a processor and a switch, includes: routing a packet from a core or from a device coupled to at least one core to a destination over a route including one or more cores, with an order of dimensions associated with the route being selected dynamically upon construction of the packet; routing the packet to a first core in the route over the first selected dimension; and routing the packet from the first core to the destination over the second dimension.
