    Capacity building, strengthening the skills, competencies and abilities of developing societies; Productive capacity, the maximum possible output of an economy; Capacity management, a process used to manage information technology in business; Capacity utilization, the extent to which an enterprise or a nation uses its theoretical productive ...

  3. Carrying capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrying_capacity

    Carrying capacity measurements over large areas also assumes homogeneity in the resources available but this does not account for how resources and access to them can greatly vary within regions and populations. They also assume that the populations in the region only rely on that region’s resources even though humans exchange resources with ...

  4. Volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume

    Capacity is the maximum amount of material that a container can hold, measured in volume or weight. However, the contained volume does not need to fill towards the container's capacity, or vice versa. Containers can only hold a specific amount of physical volume, not weight (excluding practical concerns).

  6. Agency (sociology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agency_(sociology)

    In social science, agency is the capacity of individuals to have the power and resources to fulfill their potential. Social structure consists of those factors of influence (such as social class, religion, gender, ethnicity, ability, customs, etc.) that determine or limit agents and their decisions. [1]

  7. Units of information - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Units_of_information

    Historically, a byte was the number of bits used to encode a character of text in the computer, which depended on computer hardware architecture, but today it almost always means eight bits – that is, an octet. An 8-bit byte can represent 256 (2 8) distinct values, such as non-negative integers from 0 to 255, or signed integers from −128 to ...

  8. Capacity of a set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacity_of_a_set

    The harmonic capacity can also be understood as a limit of the condenser capacity. To wit, let S r denote the sphere of radius r about the origin in . Since K is bounded, for sufficiently large r, S r will enclose K and (Σ, S r) will form a condenser pair. The harmonic capacity is then the limit as r tends to infinity:

  9. Heat capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_capacity

    Heat capacity or thermal capacity is a physical property of matter, defined as the amount of heat to be supplied to an object to produce a unit change in its temperature. [1] The SI unit of heat capacity is joule per kelvin (J/K).
