The job-shop scheduling problem (JSP) is a hard combinatorial optimization problem. In this paper, the mixed programming of MATLAB and VC is considered to solve the JSP. Firstly, MATLAB is used to implement an improved genetic algorithm (GA), and then the program is packaged into a dynamic link library (DLL). Secondly, VC is used to realize the input/output interface and call the GA DLL to schedule and store the scheduling results into the ORACLE database. Finally, the simulation results show that the improved GA has good optimization performance in solving JSP and the mixed programming design is effective.
