While tree contraction algorithms play an important role in efficient tree computation in parallel, it is difficult to develop such algorithms due to the strict conditions imposed on contracting operators. In this paper, we propose a systematic method of deriving efficient tree contraction algorithms from recursive functions on trees. We identify a general recursive form that can be parallelized into efficient tree contraction algorithms, and present a derivation strategy for transforming general recursive functions to the parallelizable form. We illustrate our approach by deriving a novel parallel algorithm for the maximum connected-set sum problem on arbitrary trees, the tree-version of the well-known maximum segment sum problem.

In this paper, we present an algorithm for a generalization of list ranking called computation list evaluation. As a consequence of the generalization and the existence of this algorithm for computation list evaluation, we obtain a generalization of Euler Tour technique. Finally, we present several applications of the generalized Euler Tour technique. Of interest in the applications is the identification of a set of problem instances that are solvable using tree contraction and which can alternatively be solved using a simple algorithm based on the generalized Euler Tour technique.
