The invention provides hardware logic based techniques for a set of processing tasks of a software program to efficiently communicate with each other while running in parallel on an array of processing cores of a multi-core data processing system dynamically shared among a group of software programs. These inter-task communication techniques comprise, by one or more task of the set, writing their inter-task communication information to a memory segment of other tasks of the set at the system memories, as well as reading inter-task communication information from their own segments at the system memories. The invention facilitates efficient inter-task communication on a multi-core fabric, without any of the communications tasks needing to know whether and at which core in the fabric any other task is executing at any given time. The invention thus enables flexibly and efficiently running any task of any program at any core of the fabric.
