Building a web-based application for language resources in Indonesia

This paper presents our work on building a web-based application for language resources development and management for Indonesian languages. This web-based application is developed using PHP, following the model-view-controller (MVC) architectural pattern. The features of our web-based application are designed to enable users in utilizing language resources and to facilitate team members in developing and managing language resources collaboratively. Some features are accessible to all types of users, but some others are accessible only to a specific type of users. The application is also intended to cover all Indonesian languages. As a result, corpus files should be encoded in UTF-8 to enable the application analyze a wide range of language characters. At the moment, the implemented corpora are Indonesian, Javanese and Sundanese. The application is designed to bear future improvements.
