MEMOIR is a system for companies for access to and sharing of technical information in large organizations. It meets a fundamental need to be able to access technical information efficiently and effectively, especially for organizations which are geographically-distributed and with substantial research and development activities. All too frequently it is still the norm for people simply to have to remember where something is stored in order to get at it. As information increases, people's ability to recollect where something is stored decreases accordingly. MEMOIR addresses specific needs to: record results from experiments; run simulations; provide information retrieval facilities for a variety of information needs; identify other people in the company who may be relevant to a particular line of work/enquiry. Key system elements in MEMOIR are an object-oriented database, hypermedia link services and autonomous software agents. Its architecture is based upon a distributed implementation of the open hypermedia architecture used by the well-known Microcosm system. The interface to the system is via a standard world wide web (WWW) browser while MEMOIR can readily incorporate existing information resources. The automatic recording of user activities in 'user trails' provides navigational clues to other users. As usage of the system increases, MEMOIR builds up information about the contexts in which documents are used in an organisation, and the agents within the system will use the trails to define associations between documents. Links, like the user trails, will be used to reinforce the system's resource location capabilities. MEMOIR has been developed in the context of two very large research and development-based companies and has been accepted as an important element of their corporate information-retrieval and management strategies. The MEMOIR framework is also appropriate for other environments.
