The invention relates to a system for providing at least part of a pulse sequence for acquiring imaging information using a magnetic resonance scanner, a corresponding method and a corresponding computer program. The system comprises a sequence module providing unit, wherein one or more sequence modules comprise a hierarchy description and a parameter description, a sequence hierarchy generating unit for generating a sequence hierarchy based on the sequence modules and the hierarchy description, a parameter dependency graph generating unit for generating a parameter dependency graph based on the parameter dependencies comprised in the parameter description of the sequence modules. The parameter dependencies are decoupled from the sequence hierarchy. The system, method and computer program of the invention allow for an improved determination of at least part of a pulse sequence.
