Abstract
A method for providing a visual representation of a graph may include displaying a current node of interest. The current node of interest may include a first plurality of neighbor nodes. A subset of the first plurality of neighbor nodes may be displayed with the current node of interest. Links connecting the subset of the first plurality of neighbor nodes to the current node of interest may also be displayed. The method may also include displaying a user interface element that facilitates navigation to additional neighbor nodes that correspond to the current node of interest but are not currently displayed.
