In this paper, we deal with a critical point metric of the total scalar curvature on a compact manifold $M$. We prove that if the critical point metric has parallel Ricci tensor, then the manifold is isometric to a standard sphere. Moreover, we show that if an $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold is a warped product, or has harmonic curvature with non-parallel Ricci tensor, then it cannot be a critical point metric.

We characterize real 4-dimensional Kahler metrices which are critical for natural quadratic Riemannian functionals defined on the space of all Riemannian metrics. In particular we show that such critical Kahler surfaces are either Einstein or have zero scalar curvature. We also make some discussion on criticality in the space of Kahler metrics.

Let M be a real hypersurface of a complex space form with constant curvature c. In this paper, we study the hypersurface M admitting Miao-Tam critical metric, i.e., the induced metric g on M satisfies the equation: $-({\Delta}_g{\lambda})g+{\nabla}^2_g{\lambda}-{\lambda}Ric=g$, where ${\lambda}$ is a smooth function on M. At first, for the case where M is Hopf, c = 0 and $c{\neq}0$ are considered respectively. For the non-Hopf case, we prove that the ruled real hypersurfaces of non-flat complex space forms do not admit Miao-Tam critical metrics. Finally, it is proved that a compact hypersurface of a complex Euclidean space admitting Miao-Tam critical metric with ${\lambda}$ > 0 or ${\lambda}$ < 0 is a sphere and a compact hypersurface of a non-flat complex space form does not exist such a critical metric.

We classify complete, locally homogeneous metrics with finite volume on four-dimensional manifolds which are critical points for the squared $L^2-norm$ functionals of either the full Riemannian curvature tensor or the Weyl curvature tensor defined on the space of Riemannian metrics.

It has been conjectured that, on a compact 3-dimensional orientable manifold, a critical point of the total scalar curvature restricted to the space of constant scalar curvature metrics of unit volume is Einstein. In this paper we prove this conjecture under a condition that ker $s^{\prime}^*_g{\neq}0$, which generalizes the previous partial results.

On a compact oriented n-dimensional manifold $(M^n,\;g)$, it has been conjectured that a metric g satisfying the critical point equation (2) should be Einstein. In this paper, we prove that if a manifold $(M^4,\;g)$ is a 4-dimensional oriented compact warped product, then g can not be a solution of CPE with a non-zero solution function f.

In the Multi-Echelon maintenance environment, METRIC(Multi-Echelon Technique for Repairable Item Control) has been used in several different inventory level selection models, such as MOD-METRIC, Vari-METRIC, and Dyna- ETRIC. While this model's logic is easy to be implemented, a critical assumption of infinite maintenance capacity would deteriorate actual values, especially Expected Back Order(EBO)s for each item. To improve the accuracy of EBO, we develop two models using simulation and queueing theory that calculates EBO considering finite capacity. The result of our numerical example shows that the expected backorder from our model is much closer to the true value than the one from Vari-METRIC. The queueing model is preferable to the simulation model regarding the computational time.

Time-predictability of computing is critical for hard real-time and safety-critical systems. However, currently there is no metric available to quantitatively evaluate time-predictability, a feature crucial to the design of time-predictable processors. This paper first proposes the concept of architectural time-predictability, which separates the time variation due to hardware architectural/microarchitectural design from that due to software. We then propose the standard deviation of clock cycles per instruction (CPI), a new metric, to measure architectural time-predictability. Our experiments confirm that the standard deviation of CPI is an effective metric to evaluate and compare architectural time-predictability for different processors.

On a compact n-dimensional manifold M, it has been conjectured that a critical point of the total scalar curvature, restricted to the space of metrics with constant scalar curvature of unit volume, is Einstein. In this paper, after derivng an interesting curvature identity, we show that the conjecture is true in dimension three and four when g is weakly Einstein. In higher dimensional case $n{\geq}5$, we also show that the conjecture is true under an additional Ricci curvature bound. Moreover, we prove that the manifold is isometric to a standard n-sphere when it is n-dimensional weakly Einstein and the kernel of the linearized scalar curvature operator is nontrivial.
