A memory architecture that separates personal preferences from organisational policy, resolves conflicting information by type and scope, and links authoritative knowledge to current source documents rather than storing stale copies.
Read on this pageAn employee's preferred answer format and a company's approval policy are both useful context, but they should not have equal authority. This technical report describes N-Tier Memory, a way for enterprise assistants to remember information while respecting who owns it and what kind of information it is.
The design separates personal preferences, shared procedures, policy and other memory types. It uses different rules to resolve conflicts and points authoritative memory back to current source documents. The report also describes the implementation and defects found during review. For enterprise buyers and builders, it explains why useful memory needs more than personalisation: it needs permission-aware retrieval, clear precedence and a way to avoid silently treating an old policy value as current knowledge.
Memory is classified by both its owner and the kind of information it represents.
Personal preferences and organisational policy follow different conflict-resolution rules.
Authoritative memory refers back to versioned source documents rather than copying policy values.
The implementation and verification described are from a single-tenant deployment. The baseline assumes a simple organisational hierarchy; overlapping groups, automatic promotion to shared memory, a full administrative interface and other extensions remain outside the documented scope.
