The correct name is Model-View-Controller (MVC) and it is a design pattern not a methodology as asked by the Slashdot poster. MVC is about more than just separating presentation from business logic. According to Java BluePrints...
"By applying the Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture to a JavaTM 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EETM) application, you separate core business model functionality from the presentation and control logic that uses this functionality. Such separation allows multiple views to share the same enterprise data model, which makes supporting multiple clients easier to implement, test, and maintain." The major difference between the above and just separating presentation from business logic is that the above allows for multiple views (presentation) tied to a single model (business logic) with presentation logic (controller). The three pieces can be mixed and matched as needed.
