abstract = {{EPICS (Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System) and Tango Controls are the two most popular control systems for scientific facilities. They both have advantages and disadvantages. Sometimes there is existing software driver supporting integration only with EPICS or Tango. EPICS Tango Bridge is the perfect solution for accessing Tango devices using EPICS Channel Access protocol. Using our bridge, the cost of integration is significantly lower than providing dedicated integration of specific hardware in EPICS. The bridge provides high reliability and robustness. Test cases created during the development process verify their limitations like the response time of reading one attribute in the bridge with a different number of Process Variables (PVs) or parallel access for multiple EPICS clients and many others.}},
