Sriram,
Anywhere we want to mean "immediately after" (in the context of maintaining
a strict sequence rather than in the context of setting timing limits) I
think the form "after X and before Y" should be used. I don't think "after"
needs to be defined since it follows standard English usage, AFAIK. And
you're right, we can't use "immediately".
