An algorithm for computing the diameter, the average diameter and the growth function of the Cayley graph of a finite group given a fixed set of generators is presented. The correctness of the algorithm is proved. After that a parallel version of the algorithm for study of the Cayley graphs of permutation groups is presented. This algorithm can be useful in the design of the topology of a multiprocessor computing system (MCS). In this case the model of MCS will be presented as the Cayley graph in which the processors are the vertices of the graph and the edges correspond to physical connections between processors. Using of this algorithm allows us to study the characteristics of the Cayley graph to evaluate the performance of MCS.
