The Blurb presents Cliffs performance with a set of benchmark problems assigned by the MMS of NTHMP. Overall, fifteen error values are evaluated using standardized analysis of results.

Cliffs error is compared with the range and the mean error among all models benchmarked and approved by MMS/NTHMP by 01/2017.

Since 08/2017, Cliffs can be used for NTHMP-funded work.
