GUI architectural patterns (Model-View-Controller, Model-View-Presenter, and Model-View-ViewModel) are software design structures that separate an application's data (Model), its visual representation (View), and the logic coordinating between them (Controller, Presenter, or ViewModel), so that responsibilities for data, presentation, and mediation are not combined in a single class. These patterns differ primarily in the direction and coupling of dependencies among the three parts and in the mechanism used for communication — direct method calls and coordination in MVC/MVP versus automated data binding in MVVM — with each successive pattern generally aiming to reduce coupling between the view and the model. This belongs to the domain of software architecture and object-oriented design, specifically the separation-of-concerns principle applied to graphical user interface construction.
