I guess conceptually....there are queues in the system and they use some kind of YM/RM software that help them adjust the inventory levels as departure day nears...the seats then get released and WL clears?
Definitely would love to hear what exactly happens behind the scenes.
One thing with EVA is that they actually do a good job managing their WLs and "clearing the cabin" before departure.
