Hierarchical model–view–controller (HMVC) is a software architectural pattern, a variation of Model–view–controller (MVC) similar to Presentation-abstraction-control (PAC), that was published in 2000 in an article[1] in JavaWorld Magazine, the authors apparently unaware[2] of PAC which was published 13 years earlier.
The controller has some oversight. The controller selects the model and then selects the view, so there is an approval mechanism by the controller. The model prevents the view from accessing the data source directly.
