Abstract :
The Reconfigurable Attack-Defend Instructional Computing Laboratory (RADICL) is a software engineering lab at the University of Idaho. The lab is unique in that it can completely reconfigure its network topology and change the operating system of every machine in the lab in four minutes. The lab has been used for various research projects, classroom exercises, and academic experiments. The organization of the lab and some examples of its classroom use are discussed in this paper.
