 ## Applicability
 Use Guarded Suspension pattern when the developer knows that the method execution will be blocked for a finite period of time
 
+## Explanation
+
+Real world example
+
+> When we reserve a dining room online and arrive to find it unready, the manager has it cleaned while we wait. 
+> Once ready, we're escorted to the room. This process exemplifies the Guarded Suspension pattern.
+
+In plain words
+
+> Guarded Suspension pattern is used when one thread waits for the result of another thread's execution.
+
+Wikipedia says
+
+> In concurrent programming, Guarded Suspension manages operations requiring a lock
+> and a precondition, delaying execution until the precondition is met.
+
+**Programmatic Example**
+
+The `GuardedQueue` class encapsulates a queue, and provides two synchronized methods, `get` and `put`.
+The `get` method waits if the queue is empty, and the `put` method adds an item to the queue and notifies waiting threads:
+
+```java
+public class GuardedQueue {
+private final Queue<Integer> sourceList = new LinkedList<>();
+
+    public synchronized Integer get() {
+        while (sourceList.isEmpty()) {
+            try {
+                wait();
+            } catch (InterruptedException e) {
+                e.printStackTrace();
+            }
+        }
+        return sourceList.peek();
+    }
+
+    public synchronized void put(Integer e) {
+        sourceList.add(e);
+        notify();
+    }
+}
+
+public class App {
+public static void main(String[] args) {
+GuardedQueue guardedQueue = new GuardedQueue();
+ExecutorService executorService = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(3);
+
+        // Here we create the first thread which is supposed to get from guardedQueue
+        executorService.execute(guardedQueue::get);
+
+        try {
+            Thread.sleep(2000);
+        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
+            e.printStackTrace();
+        }
+
+        // Here we create the second thread which is supposed to put to guardedQueue
+        executorService.execute(() -> {
+            guardedQueue.put(20);
+        });
+
+        executorService.shutdown();
+        try {
+            executorService.awaitTermination(30, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
+        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
+            e.printStackTrace();
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
