STARs and IAPs have nothing to do with aircraft type (with the exception that you may get variations within an approach for different aircraft categories which basically accounts for speed ).

STARs are basically a predefined route for aircraft to get towards the initial part of the IAP.

The IAP is the actual approach procedure for aircraft to line up with and descend towards the runway.
