• generating at least one weak mapping table for determining a relationship between a plurality of source tables that lack an explicit mapping between respective source tables based on customizable linking rules, a target probability, and a target cardinality;
• employing the organized data and the at least one weak mapping table to generate a destination table and a result table based on each row and column of a starting table and the columns of each other table that is related to the starting table, wherein any determined path between related tables is based on a dictionary concept that lists at least one or more columns;
