ACM Format for Bibliography

Post by rakhihemani »

hi,

I want to make a report in LaTeX, and use ACM style of references. I have used acmtrans.bst and my code looks like

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt]{article} 
\usepackage{bibentry} 
\usepackage{natbib} 
\usepackage{graphicx}
\listfiles 
\makeatletter 
\makeatother 
%\renewcommand\BR@b@bibitem[2][]{\BR@bibitem[#1]{#2}\BR@c@bibitem{#2}} 
\begin{document}
\cite{fo_95}
\bibliographystyle{acmtrans} 
\bibliography{myrefs} 
\end{document}

the file myrefs.bib contains

Code: Select all

@INCOLLECTION{fo_95,
  author = {Foster, Ian},
  title = {Designing and Building Parallel Programs: Concepts and Tools for Parallel Software Engineering},
  publisher = {Addison-Wesley Longman Publishing Co., Inc.},
  year = {1995},
  address = {Boston, MA, USA},
  isbn = {0201575949}
}
The output expected for citation is

[Foster 1995]

and I get

Foster (1995)

can you please help me out.
