Here's a good exposition of GLR parsing techniques:


Elizabeth Scott, Adrian Johnstone and Shamsa Sadaf Hussain,
Tomita-Style Generalised LR Parsers,
Royal Holloway, University of London, Department of Computer Science, TR-00-12
<http://www.cs.rhul.ac.uk/research/languages/publications/tomita_style_1.ps>
(2000-12-24).




Paul Hilfinger wrote the Bison GLR implementation by starting from the
much briefer description in:


Tim A. Wagner,
Practical Algorithms for Incremental Software Development Environments,
Ph.D. dissertation, University of California, Berkeley
<http://http.cs.berkeley.edu/Research/Projects/harmonia/papers/twagner-thesis.pdf>
(1998-03-10).
