We present an accurate user-encounter trace generator based on analytical models. Our method generates traces of intercontact times faster than models that explicitly generate mobility traces. We use this trace generator to study the characteristics of pair-wise intercontact-time distributions and visualize, using simulations, how they combine to form the aggregate intercontact-time distribution. Finally, we apply our trace-generation model to the epidemic routing protocol.
