+### DMRG Performer Example
+
+As a usage demonstration, we have `examples/run_dmrg.ipynb`. This notebook can be used to run density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) calculations on a choice of problem instance files and then produce solution files. Running instructions are included in the notebook.
+
+### Planted Solutions
+
+Several cropped complete active space (CCAS) planted solutions are already included in this benchmark. The related proctor json files, which include generation parameters, can be found in the [planted solutions repository](https://github.com/jtcantin/planted_solutions). The planted solutions repository includes code and instructions to generate more planted solutions.
