When compiling a .tex file you typically have to run latex (or
pdflatex) a couple of times because these programs make only one pass
through the source .tex file. You also have to run bibtex to generate
the bibliography. Normally the following sequence of commands should
work (in this order, and assuming you have a proper .bib file
referenced in your .tex file):

pdflatex paper.tex
bibtex paper
pdflatex paper.tex
pdflatex paper.tex

(The last one may not be necessary, but it doesn't hurt).

After these, the citations should appear correctly.
