a suitable bibtex entry would be

@article{CTBNRLE,
	author = "Christian R. Shelton and Yu Fan and William Lam and Joon Lee

	title = "Continuous Time {B}ayesian Network Reasoning and Learning
Engine",

How to compile:
===============
see the file "INSTALL" in the root directory

Structure:
==========

The base directory is split into multiple directorys:

demo/  This contains example programs on how to use the libraries.  They
	are often useful on their own (e.g. sample from a CTBN, learn a CTBN
	from samples, etc).  The README.txt file also has information on 
	the file extensions used for data files.

doc/   This directory contains information on how to read the code and 
	use it, literature to read, and funding sources that made this code
	base possible.

src/   This directory contains all of the non-header files.

hdr/   This directory contains all of the header files.  This, plus the ctbn.a
	created in /src are all that is necessary to link a new program to
	the libraries here

tst/   This directory contains regression tests that are used to verify that
	the code is working

eigen/ and glpk/ These directories contain the source trees for Eigen
	(a matrix package -- headers only) and GLPK (a linear program solver)
