Also, in 1968, an MIT [[ALGOL]] version, AED-0, established a direct link between data structures ("plexes", in that dialect) and procedures, prefiguring what were later termed "messages", "methods", and "member functions".<ref name=simuladev>{{cite journal

Independently of later MIT work such as AED, [[Simula]] was developed during the years 1961–1967.<ref name=simuladev/>

Simula introduced important concepts that are today an essential part of object-oriented programming, such as [[Class (computer programming)|class]] and [[Object (computer science)|object]], inheritance, and [[Dynamic binding (computing)|dynamic binding]]..<ref name="auto">{{citeCite journal|last = Holmevik|first = Jan Rune|title = Compiling Simula: A historical study of technological genesis|journal = [[IEEE Annals of the History of Computing]]|volume = 16|issue = 4|pages = 25–37|date = Winter 1994|url = http://www.idi.ntnu.no/grupper/su/publ/simula/holmevik-simula-ieeeannals94.pdf|doi = 10.1109/85.329756|s2cid = 18148999|access-date = 3 March 2018|archive-date = 30 August 2017|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20170830065454/http://www.idi.ntnu.no/grupper/su/publ/simula/holmevik-simula-ieeeannals94.pdf|url-status = dead}}</ref>

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"/>

For example, the [[circle-ellipse problem]] is difficult to handle using OOP's concept of [[inheritance (object-oriented programming)|inheritance]].

However, [[Niklaus Wirth]] (who popularized the adage now known as [[Wirth's law]]: "Software is getting slower more rapidly than hardware becomes faster") said of OOP in his paper, "Good Ideas through the Looking Glass", "This paradigm closely reflects the structure of systems in the real world and is therefore well suited to model complex systems with complex behavior"<ref>{{cite journal
