Title: TUAP004

Research Question: How can TANGO, an object-oriented control system toolkit based on CORBA, be used to integrate and control various devices in a system?

Methodology: The researchers developed TANGO, a control system toolkit that uses CORBA for system integration. They designed a device pattern and an API for implementing new control classes and physics applications. They also created a database for device-specific information and descriptions.

Results: They found that TANGO successfully integrates and controls various devices by using a single interface and a unique object control interface. The device server processes, which are based on a well-defined device pattern, provide high flexibility and efficiency.

Implications: TANGO can be used to create generic applications that can work with any kind of device. This makes it easier for system integrators to build and maintain control systems. The use of freely available software ensures that TANGO is cost-effective and widely applicable.
