Is there any kind of a time mechanism that will allow a process to be started at a specific time each day?

There is not a scheduling mechanism native to LC/ADEP. A valid approach would be to use a cron job or WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation) to start a batch file that calls a Java class that uses the LC Java API to invoke the short-lived process.

See http://help.adobe.com/en_US/enterpriseplatform/10.0/programLC/help/index.html
