Andrei Alexandrescu is a Romanian C++ programmer and author. He is particularly known for his pioneering work on policy-based design implemented via template metaprogramming. These ideas are articulated in his book Modern C++ Design and were first implemented in his programming library, Loki. He also implemented the "move constructors" concept in his MOJO library.[1] He contributed to the C/C++ Users Journal under the byline "Generic<Programming>". Alexandrescu is currently a research scientist at Facebook.
