Factorization in commutative rings with zero divisors, III

Let R be a commutative ring with identity. We continue our study of factori zation in commutative rings with zero divisors. In Section 2 we consider in ert extensions and atomicity. In Section 3 we characterize the atomic rings in which almost all atoms are prime. In Section 4 we investigate bounded f actorization rings (BFR's) and U-BFR's, and in Section 5 we study finite fa ctorization rings (FFR's).
