I came up with the following solution. We capture all relevant information from the pieces you mentioned and add them to a hash.
Then it's just a matter of simple replacement of matches with hash values.
use warnings;
use strict;
my ($fname) = @ARGV;
open my $fh, '<', $fname or die $!;
my %cit_ids;
# Fill the hash with relevant ids
while (<$fh>) {
while (m/<bib id="CIT-(?<name>\w+)-(?<id>b0*(?<num>\d+))">/g) {
$cit_ids{$+{id}} = $+{name} . $+{num};
}
}
seek $fh, 0, 0; # Rewind the file
while (<$fh>) {
s/rid="(b0*\d+)"/rid="$cit_ids{$1}"/g;
print;
}
