Anand,
This is going to depend. If you are upgrading to Actuate 9, 10, or
iServer Express, this functionality will remain unchanged. If you are
just running the BIRT report engine standalone, then it is up to you to
do this. I would recommend that you schedule them using Scheduled Jobs
or AT if your on Windows, or as a background process or using a cronjob
using *nix.

Actually, no, I usually roll my own.
There is iServer Express, which is not free or open source. Its
everything youve come to expect from iServer, except it only supports
BIRT and eSpreadsheet, and is much cheaper.
I don't know off hand, but maybe Pentaho. I haven't used it personally,
but I know they have BIRT integrated in it, I just don't know if they
support scheduling jobs.
