A paper called More Fun with Monoids by Oleg Kiselyov introduced a map-reduce pattern that can be used to solve the parentheses matching problem with O(n) work and O(logn) span. The problem can be further parallelized using a previous or smaller element problem algorithm to solve the general definition of the parentheses matching problem with O(nlogn) work and O(logn) span.
