An Idea for a Short Story Format

I think it would be cool if someone laid out a short story in the form of a scientific paper. It could be very Nabokovian -- maybe written by a mad narrator who is distracted or even crazed by the very thing he's working on. The Introduction could be the prologue of sorts or just seem very sane. The abstract can be what the paper was supposed to be or even the "jacket" of the story. Instead of chapters, there would be sections. I think it would be pretty cool. I'll work on one when I'm done with this big competition I'm in.
