Embedding business intelligence objects allows you to access the Oracle BI EE Presentation Services catalog and choose Oracle BI EE objects, such as analyses and dashboards, to include in ADF pages
When you add a business intelligence object to an ADF page, that page will contain a reference to the business intelligence object and does not contain a copy of the object. When the business intelligence object is modified and saved to the Oracle BI EE Presentation Services Catalog, any changes will appear in the ADF application when the user runs the form

MVC (Model-View-Controller) separates the application into
‣ A Model layer that handle interactions with data sources
‣ A View layer that handles the UI, and
‣ A Controller layer that handles the application flow
‣ A Model layer that handle interactions with data sources
