A good reference for various compression techniques is "The Data
Compression Book" by Mark Nelson, from M&T Books.  The book includes
chapters on Huffman, Lempel-Ziv, arithmetic coding, JPEG, and other
methods.  It also includes source code in the book and on IBM disk for
each of the compression methods it describes.  I believe it also
includes test files of various formats to demonstrate the methods and
provide benchmarks.
