Spoof Gibberish Academic Paper Accepted by International IT Science Conference

Three MIT students decided to test the standards of their peers by submitting a series of academic papers for use as presentations at the forthcoming World Multiconference on Systemics, Cybernetics and Informatics (WMSCI) in Florida.

One paper, entitled "Rooter: A Methodology for the Typical Unification of Access Points and Redundancy", complete with meaningless text, charts and diagrams, has been accepted.

An example of the gibberish included reads "the model for our heuristic consists of four independent components: simulated annealing, active networks, flexible modalities, and the study of reinforcement learning".
