Hi Vijay, in-process communication is basically what Akka is all about: sending messages between independent agents running on (possibly) different threads. Apart from that you probably mean Akka Remoting when mentioning TCP and UDP (where the latter is experimental). Something akin to multicast is supported by the EventStream within a single (local) ActorSystem, if you want to send messages to multiple actors at a time then you’ll have to send copies to all of them—a router of the Group variety<http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/2.3-M2/scala/routing.html#Group>can help with that. IPC is only supported via Remoting at this point.
