Hello everyone

I hope you're having a good day. I am looking for some good books/tutorials that explain in detail how modern electronic dictionaries are made. For example, Cambridge Dictionary entries are written by analysing huge collection of linguistic data (aka language corpora). I am looking for books/papers/journals etc... that explain step by step, with examples and illustrations, how exactly the meaning of a word is constructed (frequency, collocations etc...)
