A language for the description of temporal situations (called TIP) is presented. It incorporates the work of Allen, Rit and Becker on qualitative and quantitative representation of temporal situations and expresses this work in a unifying language approach, enhanced by arithmetic and procedural constructs. TIP is intermediate in the sense that it is a kind of assembler language for the declarative description of temporal situations. By careful choice of TIP's syntax, mnemonics and structure, TIP allows its application as an interpreted interface language between user and the underlying TIP inference engine as well. Several application examples are provided, amongst them 'real life' applications from the planning and scheduling domains. An outlook on possible additional language features in future versions of TIP is given.
