Hi all,

The question seems to be trivial , but at one place ASP is expanded as (Asymmetric Multiprocessing System) & in another place it is defined as (Attached Support Processor) and I am not sure which one s correct.

Please let me know , which one of the expanded form is correct.

Attached Support Processor is the definition in this brief history of JES from a SHARE conference:

The link above states that the NASA folks didn't like the fact that ASP required a separate processor, so HASP was developed to run on the base processor.

Therefore, www.foldoc.org defines HASP as the Houston Automatic Spooling Program, the precursor to our JES2/3.
