%% BIBUNITS.STY     by Jose Alberto Fernandez (alberto@cs.umd.edu)
%% 
%% BIBUNITS is a style to generate separate bibliographies for
%% different units (parts) of the text (currently only one of
%% chapters, sections or bibunit-environments). 
%% The style will separate the citations of each unit of text into a
%% separate file to be processed by bibtex. The global bibliography
%% section produced by LATEX also can appear in the document and
%% citations can be placed in both at the same time.
%% 
%% Use the \bibliographyunit[<unit>] (<unit> = \chapter, \section) to
%% select how the references will be generated. (For every chapter or
%% for every section). Use \bibliographyunit with no arguments to
%% deactivate bibliographyunits. By default citations will only appear
%% in the local bibliography. WARNING: By default \bibliographyunit is
%% in a deactivated state.
%% 
%% If \bibliographyunit is active the \bibliography{bibtex-files} and
%% \bibliographystyle{style} commands also specify the bibtex-files
%% and style to be used by default in the local units. The commands
%% \bibliography*{<bibtex-files>} and \bibliographystyle*{<style>}
%% specify the defaults for BIBUNITS and not generate any information
%% for the global bibliography. WARNING: This values are taken as
%% defaults only when executed after activate \bibliographyunit
%% 
%% The environment \begin{bibunit}[<style>] .. \end{bibunit} allows
%% the creation of a unit while \bibliographyunit is not active. The
%% optional parameter <style> specifies a style for the biblography
%% different from the default if any. WARNING: The use of this
%% environment while \bibliographyunit is active can produce extrange
%% results. Note that default style and bibtex-files only exist if
%% specified while \bibliographyunit was active.
%% 
%% Use \cite and \nocite to generate citations. \cite* and \nocite*
%% can be use to generate citations to be added in both the local and
%% global bibliography while inside a unit.
%%
%% You must insert the command \putbib[<bibtex-files>] before the end
%% of each <unit> in the location where you want the bibliography to
%% be inserted. If the optional argument is ommited, \putbib uses the
%% default bibtex-files if any.
%% 
%% BIBTEX processing:
%% For each <unit>, in sequence, there is now a corresponding file 
%% \jobname.\the\@bibunitauxcnt.aux that need to be compiled though
%% BIBTEX as well as the \jobname.aux that generates the global
%% database. 
%% 
%% Suppose your document is foo.tex, you must now invoke bibtex not only
%% on foo, but also on foo.1, ..., foo.n given that there are n
%% different <units> with separate bibliography.

   Is there a way to make a multisection bibliography using LaTex and Bibtex?
   Ideally, I'd like to be able to do something like:

	   \section{VLIW Architectures}
	   \nocite{Colwell87}
	   \nocite{ ...etc...

	   \section{Trace Scheduling}
	   \nocite{Fisher81}
	   \nocite{ ...etc...

   and end up with a multisection bibliography.  Any suggestions other than
   resorting to using \bibitem's out of the .bbl file?  Thanks in advance.

I created a style called bibunits.sty that allow that some other
things more. You can specify if you want bibliografy by chapters,
sections or by your own subdivision. You can also specify if you want
that all the reference be callected ALSO in a global bibliography or
not.

Here is the style, have fun.
