14. A system for processing an image for compression and transmission, the image having data associated therewith, the data having one or more data values and color levels, the data being subsequently compressed and transmitted, the system comprising:
- a parameter selecting circuit, routine or application that determines one or more parameters for processing data associated with the image, the parameters associated with at least one of data compression and data transmission of the image; and
a data enhancing circuit, routine or application that enhances a contrast of the data values based on the one or more parameters determined.

24. A machine-readable medium that provides instructions for processing an image for compression and transmission, the image having data associated therewith, the data having one or more data values and color levels, the instructions, when executed by a processor, causing the processor to perform operations comprising:
-
determining one or more parameters associated with at least one of data compression and data transmission of the image; and
processing data associated with the image by enhancing a contrast of the data values based on the one or more parameters determined. - View Dependent Claims (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 34)
