Abstract
A method of generating a computer system to determine a sequence of data transfers required to move data from one or more tables in a source database into a corresponding destination table in a relational database. A randomly ordered list of destination tables is created and sorted such that the destination tables are arranged in a least dependent order so that data is moved into tables before data is moved into tables that contain foreign keys.
