This paper explores the idea of exploiting this internal parallelism to extend the scope of genetic programming (GP) and improve its efficiency. We call the resulting form of GP sub-machine-code GP. The differences between sub-machine-code GP and the usual form of GP are purely semantic and largely language independent, i.e. any GP system can potentially be used to do sub-machine code GP. In this chapter this form of GP and some of its applications are presented. The speed up obtained with this technique on Boolean classification problems is nearly 2 orders of magnitude.
