Abstract
Incremental parsing has been developed to reuse the parse result of the original string during the parsing of a new string. The previous incremental LL(1) parsing methods precomputed the reusable point information before parsing and used it during parsing. This paper proposes an efficient reusable point computation by factoring the common part of the computation. The common symbol storing method and the distance storing method were previously suggested to find the reusable point, and by combining the methods, this paper gives the storing method of the distance to common symbols. Based on it, an efficient incremental LL(1) parser is constructed.
