Overview

This book addresses the question of how to structure the linguistic data in a historical dictionary or a historical lexicon with methods that incorporate relational databases and language processing. Emphasis is made on the integration of corpus linguistics and dictionary compilation through aims and tasks associated with electronic lexicography, as well as on the interaction of datasets guided by the transition from relational databases to knowledge bases.
