    Queryable Linked Data is published through several interfaces, including SPARQL endpoints and Linked Data documents. In October 2014, the DBpedia Association announced an official Triple Pattern Fragments interface to its popular DBpedia dataset. This interface proposes to improve the availability of live queryable data by dividing query execution between clients and servers. In this paper, we present a usage analysis between November 2014 and July 2015. In 9 months time, the interface had an average availability of 99.99 %, handling 16,776,170 requests, 43.0% of which were served from cache. These numbers provide promising evidence that low-cost Triple Pattern Fragments interfaces provide a viable strategy for live applications on top of public, queryable datasets

    This paper is about collectivism in the Network Society. Many\ud researches about the Network Society evaluate collectivism, citing Japanese\ud culture and Hacker culture as good models of such collectivism. However, some\ud researchers, such as K. Abe in his analysis of “Seken,” criticize Japanese\ud collectivism. Abe’s study pointed out the negative effect of Japanese collectivism\ud on scientific progress. This paper will criticize Abe’s study and offer a new model\ud for evaluating collectivism, which has previously been evaluated in earlier studies\ud about the Network Society. First this paper introduces the previous studies and\ud considers a model of communication in the Network Society. Then this paper\ud considers the results of a survey of Japanese engineers in order to test the validity\ud and shortcomings of this model
