Cognitive Memoisation: LLM Systems Requirements for Knowledge Round Trip Engineering

Open, Unclassified Requirements for CM-Compatible LLM Selection in RT-KE Systems

This document is open, unclassified, and vendor-neutral. It defines capability requirements only and contains no operational, organisational, or classified information.

1. Scope and Intent

This document defines open, unclassified requirements for selecting large language models (LLMs) suitable for Cognitive Memoisation (CM) and Round-Trip Knowledge Engineering (RT-KE) workflows.

The intent is to enable transparent evaluation of LLM platforms for governed, durable knowledge engineering, rather than transient conversational use.

These requirements apply equally to:

• research systems
• enterprise deployments
• on-premise installations
• API-based services
• self-hosted models

They are independent of licensing, vendor, hosting model, or user interface.
