Parallel States
A Parallel state is a state in which its substates are executed concurrently, that is, at the same time. In the below example, when State1 receives control of flow, then both substates State2 and State3 begin execution at the same time.
Configuring a Parallel State
To configure a State usage as a Parallel state:
1. Select the State usage, in the Properties section, click the State tab.
2. Set the value of the parallel tag definition to TRUE. The selected State usage is now a Parallel state.

For a Parallel state to work effectively, the transitions within the substates must not crossover.
