Model-View-Presenter(MVP) :: Design Pattern

Model-View-Presenter (MVP) is a variation of the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern but specifically geared towards a page event model such as ASP.NET. For a bit of history, MVP was originally used as the framework of choice behind Dolphin Smalltalk. The primary differentiator of MVP is that the Presenter implements an Observer design of MVC but the basic ideas of MVC remain the same: the model stores the data, the view shows a representation of the model, and the presenter coordinates communications between the layers. MVP implements an Observer approach with respect to the fact that the Presenter interprets events and performs logic necessary to map those events to the proper commands to manipulate the model.

Model – This is be your business object / service / data or a module which has logic in it

View – This is your UI which has controls / images / text etc.

Presenter – This is an object whose only task to join View and Model.
