        abstract = {Complex problem solving takes place for reducing the
barrier between a given start state and an intended goal
state with the help of cognitive activities and behavior.
Start state, intended goal state, and barriers prove
complexity, change dynamically over time, and can be
partially intransparent. In contrast to solving simple
problems, with complex problems at the beginning of
a problem solution the exact features of the start state,
of the intended goal state, and of the barriers are
unknown. Complex problem solving expects the effi-
cient interaction between the problem-solving person
and situational conditions that depend on the task.
It demands the use of cognitive, emotional, and
social resources as well as knowledge.}
