How do I make an Android app control phone silence even when app isn't running?

Question

Say in the app I want the phone to silence beginning at one time and ending at another. I get how to silence and unsilence the phone, but how can I do this where even if you use the task manager to exit your application, or use a Task Killer, the phone still silences when it should?

Yes, I have seen this done before on apps that silence your phone at a time you set, even if the app isn't running in the background. — AggieDev, Mar 05 '13 at 07:29
