```

### API Layer

The API Layer is responsible for handling incoming requests and routing them to the appropriate services. It provides a RESTful interface for external clients to interact with the Calminer system.

_Responsibility:_ Handle HTTP requests and responses.

_Interface:_ RESTful API endpoints.

_Dependencies:_ Depends on the Service Layer for business logic processing.

### Service Layer

The Service Layer contains the core business logic of the Calminer application. It processes data, applies mining algorithms, and manages workflows between different components.

_Responsibility:_ Implement business rules and data processing.

_Interface:_ Service interfaces for communication with the API Layer.

_Dependencies:_ Depends on the Data Access Layer for data persistence.

### Data Access Layer

The Data Access Layer is responsible for interacting with the underlying data storage systems. It provides an abstraction over the data sources and handles all CRUD operations.

_Responsibility:_ Manage data storage and retrieval.

_Interface:_ Data access interfaces for the Service Layer.

_Dependencies:_ Depends on the Database System for persistent storage.

### Frontend Layer

The Frontend Layer is responsible for the user interface of the Calminer application. It provides a web-based interface for users to create projects, configure parameters, and view reports.

_Responsibility:_ Render user interface and handle user interactions.

_Interface:_ Web pages and client-side scripts.

_Dependencies:_ Depends on the API Layer for backend communication.

### Database System

The Database System is responsible for storing and managing all persistent data used by the Calminer application, including user data, project configurations, and analysis results.

_Responsibility:_ Manage persistent data storage and retrieval.

_Interface:_ Database access interfaces for the Data Access Layer.

_Dependencies:_ None.

### Frontend Components

#### User Interface

The User Interface component is responsible for rendering the web pages and handling user interactions.

_Responsibility:_ Display data and capture user input.

_Interface:_ HTML, CSS, JavaScript.

_Dependencies:_ Depends on the API Layer for data retrieval.

#### Visualization Module

The Visualization Module provides data visualization capabilities, allowing users to view analysis results in graphical formats.

_Responsibility:_ Generate charts and graphs.

_Interface:_ Chart.js library.

_Dependencies:_ Depends on the API Layer for data.

### Backend Components

#### Authentication Service

The Authentication Service manages user authentication and authorization.

_Responsibility:_ Handle user login and access control.

_Interface:_ Authentication APIs.

_Dependencies:_ Depends on the Database System for user data.

#### Reporting Module

The Reporting Module generates comprehensive reports based on analysis results.

_Responsibility:_ Create and format reports.

_Interface:_ Report generation APIs.

_Dependencies:_ Depends on the Service Layer for data processing.

#### Simulation Engine

The Simulation Engine performs the core mining simulations and calculations.

_Responsibility:_ Execute mining algorithms.

_Interface:_ Simulation APIs.

_Dependencies:_ Depends on the Data Access Layer for data retrieval and storage.

## Level 3

### Simulation Engine Components

#### Mining Algorithm

The Mining Algorithm component is responsible for implementing the core mining logic.

_Responsibility:_ Execute mining algorithms on the input data.

_Interface:_ Algorithm APIs.

_Dependencies:_ Depends on the Data Access Layer for data retrieval.

#### Data Preprocessing

The Data Preprocessing component handles the preparation of input data for mining.

_Responsibility:_ Clean and transform input data.

_Interface:_ Data preprocessing APIs.

_Dependencies:_ Depends on the Data Access Layer for data retrieval.

#### Result Postprocessing

The Result Postprocessing component is responsible for formatting and refining the mining results.

_Responsibility:_ Prepare final results for presentation.

_Interface:_ Result formatting APIs.

_Dependencies:_ Depends on the Data Access Layer for data storage.
