We revisit the data previously collected by the SocioPatterns collaboration (http://www.sociopatterns.org/) and we compare the distributions of several network properties to the results of Monte Carlo simulations of a dynamic graph model.

The dynamic graph model assigns on-off durations to each link from an appropriate probability distribution. Even if the model does not capture all the important features of the real-world network, it provides a useful first approximation.
