The book Core J2EE Patterns (and its companion online pattern catalog) [Alur et al.] has Composite View listed as a design pattern and demonstrates several different strategies for implementing it. The Composite View itself is the idea of assembling a web page from pluggable, reusable components. The solutions to this problem are presented as different strategies that are actually completely different solutions to the same problem. This may be confusing if you're used to design patterns that give a reasonably specific solution to a problem.
