The best source on incremental parsing I've seen is Tim Wagner's PhD
thesis -- he worked on the Ensemble project at Berkeley (which has
since morphed into the Harmonia project).
Tim A. Wagner. Practical algorithms for incremental software
development environments. Technical Report CSD-97-946, University of
California, Berkeley, March 11, 1998.
