Well you might want to look deeply into ASP.Net Remoting Overview[^].

Also you will most probably need to use the ServiceController Class.
Here[^] is the MSDN link for it.
An example which shows you how to Start, Stop and Restart Windows Service [C#][^].

An extra link about Remoting: Calling a Windows Service from ASP.NET via Remoting & IpcChannel[^]

Another option if you do not have a Windows Service: Simulate a Windows Service using ASP.NET to run scheduled jobs[^]

Good luck,
