Automatic Creation of the Root Function

The root Function is the container for functions allocated to a Component . It is decomposed by the functions and reflects the behavior of the Component . The model assistant automatically creates the root Function and properly relates it to the Component . Model assistant rules also enable you to see behavioral views of the Component directly from the Component . This reinforces the fact that there is one integrated model with behavioral and physical perspectives rather than multiple disjoint models.
