Cairngorm is an open source frameworks for application architecture in Adobe Flex. Is is based on the MVC model.
Cairngorm was initially developed by iteration::two, a Scottish software consultancy led by Steven Webster and Alistair McLeod. Cairngorm recommends the layers described by Eric Evans in Domain-Driven Design:
Presentation - presents data to the user and gathers input. i.e. the fancy UI
Application - performs the operations of the application. i.e. saving a form
Domain - models the business concerns of the application. i.e. the form data
Infrastructure - coordinates objects and integrates with other systems. i.e. talking to the server
