The SLOT and SIGNAL macros would generate a string representation of the signal and the slot containing the name, arguments etc (kind like a mangled C++ method name?). These names are then looked up (where?) and the appropriate slots are called ( i guess through the meta object?..qt_metacall).

You can get all answers from moc generated files and implementation of QObject.
There's no magic in this stuff :)
