There was a paper about parallel processing and parsing at Balisage 2013:

Medforth, Nigel, Dan Lin, Kenneth Herdy, Rob Cameron and Arrvindh
Shriraman. “icXML: Accelerating a Commercial XML Parser Using SIMD and
Multicore Technologies.” Presented at Balisage: The Markup Conference
2013, Montréal, Canada, August 6 - 9, 2013. In Proceedings of Balisage:
The Markup Conference 2013. Balisage Series on Markup Technologies, vol.
10 (2013). https://doi.org/10.4242/BalisageVol10.Cameron01.

Their software seems to still be in active development, but I haven't
seen that it made the leap to GPUs:
