  • Technological design of a state-of-the-art digital dictionary [Elektronski vir]
    Klemenc, Bojan ...
    An important building block of a state-of-the-art digital Slovene language dictionary is its technological framework, which is briefly presented in this paper. We view the dictionary as a multi-tier ... architecture with a presentation tier, a middle application tier (a back-end application system with a component for semi-automatic data extraction), and a data tier. In their natural form, the language data are multidimensional. In a printed dictionary, there is just the presentation tier, and thus many relations contained in the underlying data are difficult to access or are even lost. By contrast, in electronic dictionaries there are no such restrictions. We can preserve the data in all its complexity and present it in various ways, since there is a distinction between the data and their presentation. This separation is the key factor in integrating various data sources (different corpora and external databases) into a unified database. Various users or programs can query different parts of the database based on their interests, and the presentation tier displays or returns the data at different levels of granularity. For each tier, we present the structure and review some of the technological considerations, which guarantee good extensibility, reliability, and adaptability of the final solution.
