Call For Papers

It's an academic thing.

Call for papers. The organizers for an academic conference will send it out to fill the schedule. There is a glut of conferences, therefore glut of CFPs.

Although, more problematic are reviewing of those papers once submitted, which is more time intensive.

Great that it's listed in his official list of papers.

From http://www.scs.stanford.edu/~dm/home/papers/

"Submitted to the 9th World Multi-Conference on Systemics, Cybernetics, and Informatics, Orlando, FL, July 2005... Note: We never received official notification of whether the paper was accepted or rejected."

Weak accept.

Somewhat relevant (and more amusing) is the story of Scigen[1], a tool that three MIT CS PhD students put together to generate fake but legitimate-looking papers in order to troll conferences with low/no acceptance standards.

Their site also tells the story of submitting and attempting to present a paper to shame one of these spammy, fake conferences.

Next time use RSS instead of giving your email. err...maybe RSS is dead by now.

Oh dear :-(
