It departs from Lisp's symbolic representation of time relations and rather uses bit vectors to that end. The intended minimal speed increase of one order of magnitude over a "conventional" Lisp implementation was already fulfilled by the first release, version 1.0. Outstanding features of version TIP 2.0 are: [...] TIP was fully written in ISO Pascal. Although its structure is similar to assembler programming, in that it provides a fast, low level temporal inference engine, it is easily portable from machine to machine. A few machine-dependant substitutions of Pascal routines serve as a further means to speed up TIP. TIP needs to be integrated into a larger system for temporal logic consisting of: (1) a domain-dependant expert system, (2) another object-oriented expert system that is able to translate domain-specific situations to domain-independent time relations, (3) a graphical user interface which must be added for a working system. Since TIP can be easily linked to or called from other programs (even written in other programming languages), integration should pose no difficulties.
