    "abstract": "Complex dynamical networks consisting of many components that interact and\nproduce each other are difficult to understand, especially, when new components\nmay appear. In this paper we outline a theory to deal with such systems. The\ntheory consists of two parts. The first part introduces the concept of a\nchemical organization as a closed and mass-maintaining set of components. This\nconcept allows to map a complex (reaction) network to the set of organizations,\nproviding a new view on the system\u0027s structure. The second part connects\ndynamics with the set of organizations, which allows to map a movement of the\nsystem in state space to a movement in the set of organizations.",
