MVC Architecture

Model-View-Controller (MVC) is a design pattern recently most popular among software engineers for applications which are needed to provide multiple views with using same data. I am suggesting MVC is better than WCF, because of this module separation. For an examples       ·          Multiple views and controllers can interface with same model for modification even those never exist before add this model.       ·          It is supporting all type of HTML verbs.       ·          No view state and post back events.       ·          Easy integration with JavaScript framework.       ·          Helps to decrease complexity of project       ·          Provides RAD development ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapid_application_development ).
