SCIgen is a program that generates a random Computer Science paper complete with citations, references, figures, and graphs. The authors (Jeremy Stribling, Max Krohn, and Dan Aguayo) of this amusing program sent two randomly generated papers to the WMSCI 2005 (9th World Multi-Conference on Systemics, Cybernetics and Informatics). -- one of their gibberish papers got accepted! Read the nonsense paper here and the acceptance letter here. Better yet, check out the SCIgen website.
Btw, to boot, the authors are raising money to fund their travel to Florida to give a randomly generated talk. :)
Now that the authors made fun of this conference, I wonder how the organizers of the conference would react once they realized they accepted a totally nonsense paper.
