As we are entering the 21st century, demand for high quality software increases dramatically. Software development requires teams of developers working closely together, so it becomes more and more important to have a good collaborative environment in order to improve efficiency, productivity, and quality. Unfortunately most software development tools are designed for a single user or do not have a good environment for teamwork. This gap led to the design of Team Lab. Earlier work at Acadia University led to the development of a collaborative virtual environment called MUM. This thesis is an attempt to validate MUM architecture by developing a MUM tool for integrated software development called Team Lab. Team Lab is a basic code management tool that provides a common repository for shared code, supports concurrent programming activity and class level version control. The conclusion of the thesis is that the architecture of MUM is a workable foundation for a CVE with full support for software development tools.
