Version 4.0 adds major search engine enhancements through integration of Inso's query expansion and electronic thesaurus technologies. Search Enhancements Major enhancements have been made to the DynaText search engine using Inso query expansion search technology. The new searching capabilities expand a user's query to achieve superior recall and precision. Thesaurus-based searching has been added using Inso's Concise International Electronic Thesaurus technology. This function operates by expanding queries to find synonyms and other related words.
Synonym substitution occurs transparently after the user executes a search.
Thesauruses are currently provided in English, French, Italian, German, and Spanish. Publishers can use this to augment the Inso-provided thesaurus, or to replace it. In addition, the action associated with the activation of an XML link can be defined by the publisher. In this manner, DynaWeb can also automatically deliver XML directly, with the appropriate style sheet, to XML compliant Web browsers as they become available. Printing Enhancements in DynaWeb DynaWeb 4.0 includes significant printing enhancements that are accessible via the user's Web browser.
