Abstract
Most application logic happens in response to some form of user action, such as a button click or a form submission. However, in many applications certain processes must be invoked without user interaction, usually at a given interval. For example, you might have a process that cleans out temporary files once an hour or a process that creates a data export from a database and sends it to an external system once a day at midnight. Most nontrivial applications require some kind of scheduling support—if not directly related to business logic of the application then to support system housekeeping.
