How's Your "Simulated Annealing"

Have you ever suspected that a lot of what passes for doctoral dissertations and published scientific papers in academia these days is just so much jargon, thesis-ese, and gobbledygook? (Or is it just me?) Well here's confirmation...

CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts (Reuters) -- In a victory for pranksters at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, a bunch of computer-generated gibberish masquerading as an academic paper has been accepted at a scientific conference.

The paper was titled: "Rooter: A Methodology for the Typical Unification of Access Points and Redundancy."

Here are a couple of gems from the bogus paper:

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

AND...

"We implemented our scatter/gather I/O server in Simula-67, augmented with opportunistically pipelined extensions."
