    Abstract: A system and method for determining software object migration sequences is presented. Objects for hardware platform migration are identified and assigned an object identifier. Decision factors and corresponding weightings are assigned which are used in determining an object migration order. Object identifier grades are determined for each decision factor corresponding to each object identifier. The object identifier grades are multiplied with corresponding decision factor weightings which results in decision factor scores. The decision factor scores for each object identifier are added together which results in a migration score for the corresponding object identifier. The migration scores along with object dependencies are used to generate a migration order. The migration order is import to a project planning software which generates a migration project plan.
