Szektorok

Szektorok is the plural form of szektor, a term used to denote divisions within a larger system that share a common function or character. The concept applies across disciplines, including economics, urban planning, and information technology. In many contexts it serves to simplify analysis by grouping activities, places, or components that behave similarly or depend on similar inputs.

In economics, szektorok typically refer to major areas of economic activity. The most common classification divides activity into primary (extraction of natural resources and agriculture), secondary (manufacturing and construction), and tertiary (services). Some schemes add quaternary (knowledge-based activities) and quinary (high-level decision making, research, and leadership). Tracking sectoral composition helps explain structural change, assess employment trends, and inform policy.

In urban planning and geography, szektorok denote spatial zones or functional areas within a city or region, such as residential, commercial, industrial, or mixed-use sectors. Zoning, land-use planning, and infrastructure provision often rely on sectoral distinctions to coordinate development and service delivery.

In computing and information technology, szektorok can refer to storage sectors—fixed-length segments of a storage device addressed by the file system. The term can also appear in broader IT discussions to describe logical divisions in networks or data architecture.

The concept of szektorok emphasizes modularity and comparative analysis, highlighting how different parts of a system contribute to overall performance and resilience. See also szektor.
