We’ve redesigned the Explorer window to make it easier to navigate and to take advantage of the new Sketch Metadata functionality We now have the ability to show a subset of sketches by selecting a tab on the left of the screen. These include: Gallery – where you can select from a predefined set of […]
Coming Soon from LINQ is a new section of our website where we will discuss the improvements we’re bringing to LINQ in the near future. We’re on a mission to make LINQ the best it possibly can be and we’re keen to have our community involved along the way. If you have any comments or […]
As LINQ users develop more and more content within the LINQ platform sketch management can become a challenge. This is particularly difficult when multiple LINQ analysts are collaborating on sketches to deliver a wide view of an organisation’s information flow. To make it easier to work with multiple LINQ sketches, we will be adding descriptive […]
One of the things we are constantly tasked with is ensuring consistency of detail and information between sketches within the LINQ environment of an organisation. The Organisation Palette will allow for multiple LINQ analysts in an organisation to use base information that is flagged as both Authoritative and Organisational and will allow LINQ editors to […]
Access to sketch content management where the sketch editor can use content provided via the organisation palette and identify which nodes are local and which are organisational and have the opportunity to update the figure used in Insights with updated organisational information. Within the LINQ canvas, a user can identify which nodes are contained in […]

Today, global accounting practises do not enable the value of those assets to be represented on the balance sheet, despite the fact that information clearly has a financial value. This is going to change – in […]
Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is one of the buzz words of the moment. RPA is an emerging form of business process automation technology based on the notion of metaphorical software robots or artificial intelligence (AI) workers. RPA is being used to automate manual tasks, where the manual task is “recorded” and a “bot” takes over […]
With the rise in internal IT cross-charging and Cloud Based compute resource charging the requirement to take the costs of a System into consideration has become integral in calculating the cost of producing information outputs. Given these needs we have now added to ability to attach an Hourly Rate to a System node. When an […]
With many customers creating Digital Twins of their organisations and using those to sketches to model multiple future states the requirement to efficiently and effectively transition Action nodes from Manual to Automated (or vice versa) was becoming more important. In this release we have added functionality to the LINQ physics engine to ensure that the […]
