Abstract:Knjiga se spreminja. V zadnjih nekaj letih so male računalniške naprave odprle nove možnosti na področju branja. Z e-knjigami so naprave postale vedno bolj popularne, tako so ljubitelji knjig spremenili bralne navade. Število e-knjig v zadnjih nekaj letih narašča, saj ni bilo še nikoli tako preprosto založiti knjigo. Z osnovnim znanjem programiranja, oblikovanja in uporabe različnih programskih orodij, je možno izdelati neverjetno e-knjigo za različne e-bralnike, tako je skoraj vsak posameznik zmožen založiti knjigo. Teoretični del diplomskega dela je namenjen raziskavi e-bralnikov, vključno z bralnikom Amazon Kindle, ki je trenutno najbolj popularen med branik na trgu. Raziskovali smo lastnosti e-branikov: uporabnost, uporabniške vmesnike, dodatne možnosti kot tudi prednosti in slabosti uporabe naprav. Osredotočili smo se raziskavo o primerjavi branja na zaslonih, ki jih podpira tehnologija elektronskega črnila in tiskani knjigi. Naredili smo tudi primerjavo različnih formatov e-knjig, kot so .mobi, .epub .azw in .pdf. V diplomski nalogi opišemo prednosti e-bralnika Kindle. Ena od teh prednosti je Whispernet, ki omogoča brezžično nakupovanje e-knjig. V nekaj sekundah nakupimo, prenesemo in prejmemo e-knjigo. Druga značilnost je sinhronizacija med večimi napravami in aplikacijami. E-bralnik Kindle omogoča uporabo funkcije Text-to-Speech, ki pretvori besede v govorjeno obliko medtem ko beremo. Zadnja in najbolj koristna funkcionalnost naprave je vgrajen slovar, ki omogoča neposredni vpogled in indeksirano iskanje, tako da ima bralec možnost pregleda definicije besede. Naš glavni cilj je bil razvoj angleško – slovenskega slovarja, ki deluje kot vgrajeni slovar in ima funkcionalnosti, kot smo jih omenili zgoraj. Drugi, praktični del, diplomskega dela je povezan z razvojem e-slovarja za Amazon Kindle. Idejo smo realizirali v treh korakih. Najprej smo zbrali podatke in informacije o e-slovarjih za Kindle naprave, ki smo jih kasneje uporabili kot primer. V drugem koraku smo razvili entitetno - relacijski model za obstoječe podatke. Tretji korak je bil namenjen oblikovanju e-slovarja iz obstoječih podatkov. Na koncu smo e-slovar testirali na napravi. Diplomska naloga pokaže, da je možno narediti e-slovar za katerikoli jezik, prav tako bi podatkovno bazo uporabili za izdelavo drugih aplikacij. Verjamemo, da je veliko možnosti za nadaljnji razvoj podatkovne baze kot tudi slovarja v prihodnosti.

Title:DEVELOPMENT OF E-DICTIONARY FOR AMAZON KINDLE
Abstract:The book is changing. In recent years, small computerised devices have opened new possibilities in the field of reading. With e-book devices becoming increasingly popular, many book lovers have altered their old reading habits. Even though the number of published books has increased, publishing an e-book has never been so easy. With a knowledge of coding and a variety of other tools, it's possible to make an amazing e-book for different kinds of e-readers, so almost every writer is able to publish a book by themselves. E-readers have gone past potential, they are a pivotal sector of the publishing market. The theoretical research of thesis is intended for e-readers, including the Amazon Kindle, the most popular electronic reading device on the market. We researched the meaning of things such as functions, interfaces and features of e-readers and the advantages and disadvantages of using the devices. We focused on researching the differences between reading processes on e-ink displays and print as well as comparing different types of e-book formats such as .mobi, .epub .azw and .pdf. In the thesis we described some advantages of the Kindle device. One of them is Whispernet wireless shop, where we can buy, download and receive a book in a few seconds. Another feature is syncing between different devices and applications. The Kindle device offers a Text-to-Speech function, converts words on a page to spoken word within reading, and lastly, one of the most valuable features of the device, built-in dictionaries which enable us to look-up functions as well as a searching tool, so that readers can look up definitions. Our main idea was to develop an English-Slovenian dictionary which works as a built-in dictionary and have the functions we mentioned before. The second, practical part, is connected with the development of an e-dictionary for an Amazon Kindle from scratch. The idea was realised in three steps. Firstly we gathered some data and information about e-dictionaries for Kindle devices, which we could use as an example; secondly we developed a relation-entity model for existing data to import data into a database. The third step was to build a dictionary from an existing database and put it into the correct form. The final thing we did was to implement and test the dictionary on the device. We concluded, that it is possible and not to hard to make an e-dictionary for the Kindle in any language while using a database as a basis. It would also be possible to use the word database for other purposes. We believe there are many possibilities to develop our database as well as dictionary in the future.
