Abstract :
Due to communication overhead and latency, Web-based user interfaces that rely exclusively on the server to refresh client screens suffer from poor performance. In this paper we show that implementation of the classic model-view-controller architecture on the client enables the client to refresh the screen in certain cases, and thus improves performance. This “dual-MVC” approach is discussed in the context of a sample Web-based application
