The paper proposes the Physbe (Physiological Benchmark) model (OOPhysbe) as a benchmark for today's object oriented modelling and simulation tools. Modularization and component reuse (two important indicators of object orientation) are ket productivity factors in the software development process in general. The OOPhysbe benchmark was selected because it is complex enough to justify the usage of all the OO mechanisms (i.e. classes, inheritance, modularization). If a given dynamic system simulation language (DSSL) fails with the OOPhysbe benchmark, it also fails to comply with the OO approach and therefore is not object oriented.
