TL;DR: It is claimed that a software assistant is a suitable approach to help reducing the complexity of the European emission trading scheme from the point of view of facility operators and the preliminary design of an assistant system called EmTrAs (Emission Trade Assistant) is presented.
Abstract: This paper examines the EU emission trading scheme with a focus on IT support tools from applied computer science. We claim that a software assistant is a suitable approach to help reducing the complexity of the European emission trading scheme from the point of view of facility operators. We present the preliminary design of an assistant system called EmTrAs (Emission Trade Assistant) that will guide facility operators through the ‘jungle’ of the emission trading system step-by-step. To allow for a timely adaptation of the assistant system to changing requirements (e.g. due to legal changes in the emission trading scheme) we consider an implementation based on workflow technology and component-based software engineering.

TL;DR: In this article, the roles and responsibilities of beginning assistant principals and how schools and preparation programs might foster the development and retention of newly-hired assistant principals were discussed. But, the purpose of the study was to better understand the roles of beginning principal and to anticipate how schools, preparation programs, and universities can better prepare graduate students for the field by focusing instruction on more managerial tasks.
Abstract: The purpose of the study was to better understand the roles and responsibilities of beginning assistant principals and to anticipate how schools and preparation programs might foster the development and retention of newly-hired assistant principals Researchers used qualitative research techniques for collecting data Data collection methods included the use of online reflective journal entries and focus groups The study consisted of three focus group meetings and four online reflective journals Participating in the study were seven, first year assistant principals
Based upon the data, universities can better prepare graduate students for the field by focusing instruction on more managerial tasks such as discipline, controversial conversations, and time management Research also suggested that school districts could better prepare assistant principals by providing support systems and resources for novice leaders Finally, the research calls for collaboration efforts between universities and school districts for better preparation and retention of assistant principals
