Abstract
A method and system for processing graphics simulation data is disclosed. Initially, a group of three-dimensional visual models to be rendered in a graphics simulation are constructed. Data that are utilized to move and control elements of the graphics simulation are acquired. The acquired data are subsequently converted to an object oriented format having tables and functions by automatically resolving dependencies between inputs and outputs of each of internal objects with external inputs and external outputs, respectively. Next, a link is established between the data in the object oriented format using the independent and dependent variables and the elements of the graphics simulation. Finally, the data in the object oriented format are processed via a graphics simulation.
