Mainly most of the European countries are densely populated but due to improved carrying capacity of land as compared to population, they are considered as optimum populated countries. I think, it is possible that the over populated country can be effectively converted in to optimum populated country with scientific and technological advancement.

Goodluck
This is a complicated problem. At least you ought to address the links between science and technology as well as between technology and economy and none of these links has a straightforward character. If we consider European countries, very many of them manage by importing food which is possible by their advanced economy. As a background source, you may use the attached book.

Carrying Capacity is relational to the economic activities, there is enough for all provided for the nature. But not all have access to resources. The restriction of flow of population from one region to another due to modern administrative regimes often allows the region with less population and high. The limited mobility and settled communities across the continents, found some communities advancing than others due to not easily available resources. Like Europe where 'necessity was mother of inventions'. When ever there would be need, the societies would evolve the technologies. Not the other way round. Limited carrying capacity are more related to agriculture and economies those dependent on the them need to have technology advancement to cope with demand or import from the surplus regions. This what dominates the trading systems. But unfortunately, the modernisation have thrown the demand of white goods much above where the focus of nations are concentrated in producing those goods which raise the GDP and mostly in demand. The countries are self sufficient in food requirements, and exchange in easier. Its environmental carrying capacities which has suffered most due to undesirable exploitation of resources, mostly post industrial revolutions. Technologies have addressed to the industrial advancement and urbanisation.
