Abstract

Path-specific delay variations in a computer communication network between a time-sensitive nexus node and time-sensitive non-nexus nodes are determined. The time-sensitive nexus node determines, based on the path-specific delay variations, copy-specific delay alignment compensations for copies of a multi-destination communication packet to be sent by the time-sensitive nexus node to the time-sensitive non-nexus nodes respectively. The time-sensitive nexus node uses the per-copy delay alignment compensations to perform per-copy delay alignment operations with respect to the copies of the multi-destination communication packet. The time-sensitive nexus node sends each copy in the copies of the multi-destination communication packet to a respective time-sensitive non-nexus node in the time-sensitive non-nexus nodes after a respective per-copy delay alignment operation in the per-copy delay alignment operations is performed for the copy of the multi-destination communication packet.
