Unified Modeling Language 2.5.1

An inout Parameter shall be associated with at most one input ActivityParameterNode and at most one output ActivityParameterNode.

Unified Modeling Language 2.5.1

When the Activity is invoked, values may be passed into the Activity execution on input Parameters (i.e., those with direction in or inout) and values may be passed out .. on output Parameters (i.e., those with direction inout, out or return).
