Disclosed is a graphical user interface to quickly build a graphical representation defining the set of instructions in a protocol without the user needing the programming knowledge to encapsulate those instructions in executable code. The graphical representation may include an arrangement of one or more graphical elements, with each graphical element corresponding to instructions or program logic. The user may also specify the set of parameters associated with each of the graphical elements. The arrangement of the one or more graphical elements, along with the set of parameters for each of the graphical elements, may be used to translate the graphical representation of the protocol into executable code for the protocol. The executable code for the protocol may then be executed by various flow cytometry machines in order to perform the protocol.
