For actually citing RMA use one or both of the papers mentioned on the webpage ie: Bolstad, B.M., Irizarry R. A., Astrand, M., and Speed, T.P. (2003), A Comparison of Normalization Methods for High Density Oligonucleotide Array Data Based on Bias and Variance. Bioinformatics 19(2):185-193 Rafael. A. Irizarry, Benjamin M. Bolstad, Francois Collin, Leslie M. Cope, Bridget Hobbs and Terence P. Speed (2003), Summaries of Affymetrix GeneChip probe level data Nucleic Acids Research 31(4):e15 To cite, the software it is probably more journal dependent. I'd prefer that your reference refers to the exact version of the software you used and the website address. But it would also be acceptable to me for you to cite the users guide instead.
