It's not easy being green. Did you know that more than 20 eco-unfriendly processing steps go into a traditional pair of pre-washed jeans? During the last decade, many denim manufacturers have begun changing the environmental hazards of their processing by recycling their wastes and greening their production steps. With STN®, we will investigate some of the new green trends in denim manufacturing.

STMA-Z

STMA-Z is a database of mathematical and general statistics for experts from science, research and industry, as well as for teachers and students. It is the successor of the Statistical Theory and Methods Abstracts Database (STMA) that was published by the International Statistical Institute (ISI). It attempts complete coverage of worldwide literature in the fields of statistics, probability theory, and financial mathematics.
The structure and search functions are the same as in ZBMATH, which also covers mathematical statistics and is published in international cooperation.
STMA-Z is published by FIZ Karlsruhe in cooperation with ISI. It comprises about 445,000 records (2010), with an annual growth rate of about 20,000.
