This thesis is focused on finding procedures that would accelerate symbolic regressions in Cartesian Genetic Programming. It describes Cartesian Genetic Programming and its use in the task of symbolic regression. It deals with the SIMD architecture and the SSE and AVX instruction set. Several optimizations that lead to a significant acceleration of evolution in Cartesian Genetic Programming are presented. A method of a bit-level parallel simulation that uses AVX2 vectors allows to process 256 input combinations of a logic circuit in paralell. Similarly it is possible to use a byte-level parallel simulation and work with 32 bytes when evolving an image filter. A new method of batch mutation can accelerate the evolution of combinational logic circuits thousand times depending on the problem size. For example, using a combination of these and other methods the evolution of 5 x 5b multipliers took 5.8 seconds on average on an Intel Core i5-4590 processor.
