The control token placed on an InitialNode is offered concurrently on all outgoing ControlFlows. Full quote InitialNodes are an exception to the rule that ControlNodes cannot “hold” tokens, but only manage their flow. Next snippet Related snippets An InitialNode is a ControlNode that acts as a starting point for executing an Activity. An Activity may have more than one InitialNode. If an Activity has more than one InitialNode, then invoking the Activity starts multiple concurrent control flows, one for each InitialNode. (Additional concurrent flows may begin at input ActivityParameterNodes and enabled ExecutableNodes ... An InitialNode shall not have any incoming ActivityEdges, which means the InitialNodes owned by an Activity will always be enabled when the Activity begins execution and a single control token is placed on each such InitialNode when Activity execution sta When an ExecutableNode completes an execution, the control token representing that execution is removed from the ExecutableNode and control tokens are offered on all outgoing ControlFlows of the ExecutableNode. That is, there is an implicit fork ... The outgoing ActivityEdges of an InitialNode must all be ControlFlows.
