What is SOFEA?

I've came across this new acronym, SOFEA, apparently a new programming paradigm for web applications.

+2  A: 

SOFEA refers to a web application architecture where all of the UI functionality is provided by javascript or flash-based logic. It doesn't interact with the web server per se to provide application level access to data, but rather interacts with web services through AJAX. Essentially, you provide all of the UI logic in a single (or few) web pages. These pages work with web services to access and update data.
