HASP is a product that extends the function of OS/360 and OS/VS2 Release 1 with spooling services. The additional functionality provided by HASP is less than that supplied by ASP, but HASP has the advantage of being much simpler and smaller than ASP. Several versions of HASP were produced between 1967 and 1973. The surviving version is HASP II Version 4 for OS/VS2 Release 1 (SVS).
The meaning of "HASP" is disputed. According to IBM documentation, HASP stands for Houston Automatic Spooling Priority.
