/**
 * This node implements the Synchronization (AND-Join) workflow pattern.
 *
 * The Synchronization workflow pattern synchronizes multiple parallel threads of execution
 * into a single thread of execution.
 *
 * Workflow execution continues once all threads of execution that are to be synchronized have
 * finished executing (exactly once).
 *
 * Use Case Example: After the confirmation email has been sent and the shipping process has
 * been completed, the order can be archived.
 *
 * Incoming nodes: 2..*
 * Outgoing nodes: 1
