Dynamic problems add elements and shift connections over time

Complex problems, by virtue of their numerous elements and the many connections between them, is almost never in stasis.

A dynamic problem situation changes over time, with the addition of new elements and the shifting of connections (e.g., through the shifting of priorities). These can be slow changes, driven by ponderous processes like cultural change, or lightning-quick movements driven by technological development, for instance.[1]
