What is an "FMS" STAR?

I was looking at a STAR yesterday (TRUDO1 for KMKE, to be specific) that had "FMS" in parentheses in the name. What does the FMS mean? I assume it has something to do with an on-board FMS, but I don't know exactly what it represents. Does it mean you have to fly the STAR with an FMS (only), or that it works best with an FMS, or what? The plate explicitly says that GPS and RNAV are required, but makes no mention of FMS requirements.
