"A research team from Zhejiang University and Alibaba Group has introduced Memp, a framework that gives large language model (LLM) agents a form of procedural memory designed to make them more efficient at complex, multi-step tasks. Instead of relearning workflows from scratch, Memp enables agents to store, retrieve, and update past experiences in real time. For developers and architects, this means fewer wasted tokens, faster task completion, and the possibility of running smaller, cheaper models without sacrificing performance."
"Large Language Models (LLMs) based agents excel at diverse tasks, yet they suffer from brittle procedural memory that is manually engineered or entangled in static parameters,"
"By systematically studying strategies for memory construction, retrieval, and updating, Memp enables agents to distill, reuse, and refine their own past experiences across diverse, long-horizon tasks."
Memp provides LLM-based agents with explicit procedural memory that captures and organizes previous workflow experiences for reuse. Agents can store, retrieve, and update procedural traces in real time to avoid relearning multi-step processes and to reduce token waste. The framework treats memory construction, retrieval, and updating as core optimization targets and supports task-agnostic strategies that improve success rates and efficiency on long-horizon tasks such as housework automation and information-seeking. Procedural memory enables continual learning and stronger generalization, allowing smaller models to perform comparably while accelerating task completion and improving resilience across diverse agent architectures.
