Hi Karthick,

Apex schedular is used to invoke apex class at a specific time. Suppose there is a apex class that needs to be invoked every 15 mins, you can write a schedular class that will invoke the deisred class every 15 mins. 

Salesforce has provided some example have a look at the following link 
http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/apexcode/Content/apex_scheduler.htm
https://help.salesforce.com/HTViewHelpDoc?id=code_schedule_batch_apex.htm&language=en_US

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Bhushan
