Input Pin (Pin)
A pin provides values to actions and accept result values from them. A pin is an object node for inputs and outputs to actions.
An input pin is a pin that holds input values to be consumed by an action.
The pinKind must be 'inputPin'
The name of the item.
A keyword is a lightweight variant of a stereotype to extend the semantics of a model element. As opposite of stereotypes, keywords does not have do be defined in a profile.
If several keywords are given, they should be separated by commas.
A stereotype defines how a model element may be extended, and enables the use of platform or domain specific terminology or notation in place of, or in addition to, the ones used for the extended metaclass.
Stereotypes should be given in the format 'profile::stererotype'. Stereotypes should be separated by commas.
A textual description of the element.
The type of the element.
Specifies the lower and upper bound of the multiplicity interval.
Determines where the item appears within different Namespaces within the overall model, and its accessibility.
Tells whether the pins provide data to the actions, or just controls when it executes it.
Tells whether the type of the object node is to be treated as control.
Indicates whether it is possible to further specialize an item. If the value is true, then it is not possible to further specialize the item.
For a multivalued multiplicity, this attribute specifies whether the values in an instantiation of this element are sequentially ordered.
For a multivalued multiplicity, this attributes specifies whether the values in an instantiation of this element are unique.
Tells whether and how the tokens in the object node are ordered for selection to traverse edges outgoing from the object node.
The maximum number of tokens allowed in the node. Objects cannot flow into the node if the upper bound is reached.
Selects tokens for outgoing edges.

This action is for synchronous calls. If it is used to handle an asynchronous call, execution of the subsequent reply action will complete immediately with no effects.

A structured activity node is an executable activity node that may have an expansion into subordinate nodes as an activity group. The subordinate nodes must belong to only one structured activity node, although they may be nested. Because of the concurrent nature of the execution of actions within and across activities, it can be difficult to guarantee the consistent access and modification of object memory.

In order to avoid race conditions or other concurrency-related problems, it is sometimes necessary to isolate the effects of a group of actions from the effects of actions outside the group. This may be indicated by setting the mustIsolate attribute to true on a structured activity node. If a structured activity node is "isolated," then any object used by an action within the node cannot be accessed by any action outside the node until the structured activity node as a whole completes. Any concurrent actions that would result in accessing such objects are required to have their execution deferred until the completion of the node.
A structured activity node is an executable activity node that may have an expansion into subordinate nodes as an activity group. The subordinate nodes must belong to only one structured activity node, although they may be nested.
Because of the concurrent nature of the execution of actions within and across activities, it can be difficult to guarantee the consistent access and modification of object memory.

A constraint is a condition or restriction expressed in natural language text or in a machine readable language for the purpose of declaring some of the semantics of an element.
An action is a named element that is the fundamental unit of executable functionality.
The execution of an action represents some transformation or processing in the modeled system, be it a computer system or otherwise.
An action represents a single step within an activity, that is, one that is not further decomposed within the activity.
An action has pre- and post-conditions.
A test identity action is an action that tests if two values are identical objects.

An unmarshall action is an action that breaks an object of a known type into outputs each of which is equal to a value from a structural feature of the object.

A value specification action is an action that evaluates a value specification.
An abstraction is a relationship that relates two elements or sets of elements that represent the same concept at different levels of abstraction or from different viewpoints.
A dependency is a relationship that signifies that a single or a set of model elements requires other model elements for their specification or implementation.
This means that the complete semantics of the depending elements is either semantically or structurally dependent on the definition of the supplier element(s).
An information flow specifies that one or more information items circulates from its sources to its targets.
Informationflows require some kind of information channel for transmitting information items from the source to the destination. An information channel is represented in various ways depending on the nature of its sources and targets. It may berepresented by connectors, links, associations, or even dependencies.
For example, if the source and destination are partsin some composite structure such as a collaboration, then the information channel is likely to be represented by aconnector between them. Or, if the source and target are objects (which are a kind of instance specification), they may berepresented by a link that joins the two, and so on.
Realization is a specialized abstraction relationship between two sets of model elements, one representing a specification (the supplier) and the other represents an implementation of the latter (the client). Realization can be used to model stepwise refinement, optimizations, transformations, templates, model synthesis, framework composition, etc.
A substitution is a relationship between two classifiers signifies that the substituting classifier complies with the contract specified by the contract classifier. This implies that instances of the substituting classifier are runtime substitutable where instances of the contract classifier are expected.
A usage is a relationship in which one element requires another element (or set of elements) for its full implementation or operation. A usage is a dependency in which the client requires the presence of the supplier.
