    The system was designed as a physics database management system (DBMS) to deal with high-energy-physics preprints. [1] Written in PL/I, SPIRES ran on an IBM System/360. In the early 1970s, an evaluation of this system resulted in the decision to implement a new system for use by faculty, staff and students at Stanford University.
