Set windows to shut down and restart automatically at a given time

Asked By m.smith 40 points N/A Posted on - 06/27/2011

Hi,

My name is M.Smith and I am a student.  I am a bit confused and mixing the concepts.The question is, is it possible that a certain given time windows automatically shuts down and startups automatically at a give time. if yes then how?

Also tell me that why does the critical section problem or synchronization problem do not occurs in threads as they also shared the memory of one process. And if yes then what do we do to avoid this.

                Waiting  for the answers. Thanking all.

Set windows to shut down and restart automatically at a given time

Hello my name is John Sena I am computer teacher in Govt. College. ok dear,

• Yes you can do it with shutdown command in Windows. Open your command prompt and explore the command shutdown. By writing shutdown and pressing enter key you will come to know all possible functionality of shutdown command in detail. Here you will find an option where specifying the time, you system will shutdown at the specified time. There are also some software available that can help you in performing this task.
• The second part of you question is that Yes, Thread also faces the same problem of synchronization. As they share the process address space therefore threads can be synchronized using those techniques that are applied when processes share the same memory like semaphores, monitors etc.

Hope you will be understand.
