The object-oriented Simula programming language was used mainly by researchers involved with [[physical modelling]], such as models to study and improve the movement of ships and their content through cargo ports.<ref name="auto"/>
 
In the 1970s, the first version of the [[Smalltalk]] programming language was developed at [[Xerox PARC]] by [[Alan Kay]], [[Dan Ingalls]] and [[Adele Goldberg (computer scientist)|Adele Goldberg]]. Smalltalk-72 included a programming environment and was [[Dynamic programming|dynamically typed]], and at first was [[Interpreter (computing)|interpreted]], not [[Compiler|compiled]]. Smalltalk became noted for its application of object orientation at the language-level and its graphical development environment. Smalltalk went through various versions and interest in the language grew.<ref name="Bertrand Meyer 2009 329">{{Cite book|title=Touch of Class: Learning to Program Well with Objects and Contracts|author=Bertrand Meyer|publisher=Springer Science & Business Media|year=2009|isbn=978-3-540-92144-8|pages=329|bibcode=2009tclp.book.....M}}</ref> While [[Smalltalk]] was influenced by the ideas introduced in Simula 67 it was designed to be a fully dynamic system in which classes could be created and modified dynamically.<ref name="st">{{Cite web|first=Alan |last=Kay |url=http://gagne.homedns.org/~tgagne/contrib/EarlyHistoryST.html |title=The Early History of Smalltalk |access-date=13 September 2007 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080710144930/http://gagne.homedns.org/~tgagne/contrib/EarlyHistoryST.html |archive-date=10 July 2008 }}</ref>
 
In the 1970s, Smalltalk influenced the [[Lisp (programming language)#Language innovations|Lisp community]] to incorporate [[Lisp (programming language)#Object systems|object-based techniques]] that were introduced to developers via the [[Lisp machine]]. Experimentation with various extensions to Lisp (such as LOOPS and [[Flavors (programming language)|Flavors]] introducing [[multiple inheritance]] and [[mixins]]) eventually led to the [[Common Lisp Object System]], which integrates functional programming and object-oriented programming and allows extension via a [[Meta-object protocol]]. In the 1980s, there were a few attempts to design processor architectures that included hardware support for objects in memory but these were not successful. Examples include the [[Intel iAPX 432]] and the [[Linn Products|Linn Smart]] [[Rekursiv]].
