Abstract

This paper focuses on implementation and benefits of the cache module for the dictionary writing system (DWS) Alexis. At first, the DWS Alexis that is being developed at the Institute of the Czech Language is introduced. We shortly present architecture of the system and briefly describe its main modules including list of entries, editing, or output modules. The main emphasis of this contribution is put on the recently developed cache module. We explain design and implementation of the cache, then we present its benefits for the dictionary writing system. At first, we analyze performance improvement of the output module, then we explain its roles in the fulltext search in the web interface of the dictionary and source of offline data for mobile devices. We conclude with a current state of development and plans for the nearest future.
