Interesting. I've built a few PXE-/IPMI-based control and boot systems, but haven't run across the SMASH acronym before. Looks like it was a set of recommendations after IPMI 1.0 that eventually were incorporated into IPMI 2.0, important bits like secure shell (SSH) access to the console, virtual boot media and better power management. I'd stick with the IPMI moniker, it's what people will know. :) (Btw, your profile appears blank -- hn anomaly?)
