 ## Intent
-Leader Election pattern is commonly used in cloud system design. It can help to ensure that task instances select the leader instance correctly and do not conflict with each other, cause contention for shared resources, or inadvertently interfere with the work that other task instances are performing.
+Leader Election pattern is commonly used in cloud system design. It can help to ensure that task 
+instances select the leader instance correctly and do not conflict with each other, cause 
+contention for shared resources, or inadvertently interfere with the work that other task 
+instances are performing.
+
+## Explanation
+
+Real world example
+> In a horizontally scaling cloud-based system, multiple instances of the same task could be 
+> running at the same time with each instance serving a different user. If these instances 
+> write to a shared resource, it's necessary to coordinate their actions to prevent each instance 
+> from overwriting the changes made by the others. In another scenario, if the tasks are performing
+> individual elements of a complex calculation in parallel, the results need to be aggregated 
+> when they all complete.
+
+In plain words
+> this pattern is used in distributed cloud-based system where leader must need to act as 
+> coordinator/aggregator among horizontal scaling instances for avoiding conflict on shared resources. 
+
+Wikipedia says
+> In distributed computing, leader election is the process of designating a single process as 
+> the organizer of some task distributed among several computers (nodes).
+
+**Programmatic Example**
+
+Ring algorithm and Bully algorithm implement leader election pattern. 
+Each algorithm require every participated instance to have unique ID.

@@ -22,10 +836,7 @@ Do not use this pattern when
 * there is a natural leader or dedicated process that can always act as the leader. For example, it may be possible to implement a singleton process that coordinates the task instances. If this process fails or becomes unhealthy, the system can shut it down and restart it.
 * the coordination between tasks can be easily achieved by using a more lightweight mechanism. For example, if several task instances simply require coordinated access to a shared resource, a preferable solution might be to use optimistic or pessimistic locking to control access to that resource.
