PMFJI here Ed, but PSPI and DMTI aren't acronyms that I recognize.  
Translations please?

STARTIO existed long before the notions of GUPI, PSPI and DMTI. AFAIK, 
IECDIOSB became classified DMTI long after the fact: as of MVS V5 I 
believe. Before that it was in the logic manuals, microfiche, etc. and 
still appears in the source-maintained portions of products like JES3 
and IMS.
