The more general definition presented above has been first proposed in 2008, in a paper published at the [[ECOOP]] conference.<ref name="ostrowski2008programming">Ostrowski, K., Birman, K., Dolev, D., and Ahnn, J. (2008). "Programming with Live Distributed Objects", ''Proceedings of the 22nd European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming'', Paphos, Cyprus, July 07–11, 2008, J. Vitek, Ed., ''Lecture Notes in Computer Science'', vol. 5142, Springer-Verlag, Berlin, Heidelberg, 463-489, http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1428508.1428536.</ref> The extension of the term has been motivated by the need to model live objects as compositions of other objects; in this sense, the concept has been inspired by [[Smalltalk]], which pioneered the uniform perspective that ''everything is an object'', and [[Jini]], which pioneered the idea that ''services are objects''. When applied to live distributed objects, the perspective dictates that their constituent parts, which includes instances of distributed multi-party protocols used internally to replicate state, should also be modeled as live distributed objects. The need for uniformity implies that the definition of a live distributed object must unify concepts such as live Web content, message streams, and instances of distributed multi-party protocols.
The first implementation of the live distributed object concept, as defined in the ECOOP paper,<ref name="ostrowski2008programming"/> was the Live Distributed Objects <ref name="ostrowski2008website">http://liveobjects.cs.cornell.edu {{Bare URL inline|date=April 2022}}</ref> platform developed by [http://www.cs.cornell.edu/~krzys Krzysztof Ostrowski] at Cornell University. The platform provided a set of visual, drag and drop tools for composing hierarchical documents resembling [[web page]]s, and containing [[XML]]-serialized live object references. Visual content such as chat windows, shared [[Desktop environment|desktops]], and various sorts of [[Mashup (digital)|mashups]] could be composed by dragging and dropping components representing user interfaces and protocol instances onto a design form, and connecting them together. Since the moment of its creation, a number of extension have been developed to embed live distributed objects in [[Microsoft Office]] documents,<ref>Ahnn, J., Birman, K., Ostrowski, K., and van Renesse, R. (2008). "Using live distributed objects for office automation", ''Proceedings of the ACM/IFIP/USENIX Middleware '08 Conference Companion'', Leuven, Belgium, December 01–05, 2008, ''Companion '08'', ACM, New York, NY, 30-35, http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1462735.1462743.</ref> and to support various types of hosted content such as Google Maps.<ref>http://liveobjects.cs.cornell.edu/community/index.html {{Dead link|date=February 2022}}</ref> As of March 2009, the platform is being actively developed by its creators.<ref name="ostrowski2008cc">Ostrowski, K., and Birman, K.
