Considering the systematization of software reuse, it is important to have automated support, such as that provided by software development environments (SDEs). However, in order to have a reuse-based SDE (RBSDE), an adequate software development process, methods and tools that consider software reuse activities must have been previously defined. We describe in this paper the Memphis environment, a RBSDE under development at the Computer Science Department of COPPE/UFRJ (the Computer Science Department of the Federal University of Rio de Jnneiro) that explores object-oriented (OO) technology in order to achieve its objectives. It supports the activities involved in software management, construction, quality assurance and reuse by providing an integrated set of tools and a reuseable component repository.
