This paper describes two software projects that are assigned in our undergraduate data communications course. The projects help students understand Lempel-Ziv algorithm and CRC generation of the OSI data link layer. The students write software to implement these two schemes. Students are particularly excited about implementing Lempel-Ziv because popular Unix utilities, such as compress, use a variant of this algorithm.
