What is the HMVC ?
Hierarchical-Model-View-Controller (HMVC)
The HMVC pattern decomposes the client tier into a hierarchy of parent-child MVC layers. The repetitive application of this pattern allows for a structured client-tier architecture. Obullo has a simple HMVC library and Obullo's simple HMVC library support internal requests at this time.
