Abstract
A system, method, and computer readable medium. A method includes receiving a geometric object and corresponding physical object for a CAD model. The method includes executing function code in a behavior object to determine required references of the behavior object. The method includes receiving and storing an assignment of at least one of the required references of the behavior object to the physical object, and storing the geometric object, physical object, and behavior object in the data processing system as associated with the CAD model. The method includes simulating operation of at least part of the CAD model, including executing the behavior object to modify the state of the physical object.
