agree  Erik Macki: Yes. Compare http://www.visagepacs.com/de/produkt_radin/bildbetrachtung.h... and http://www.visagepacs.com/en/produkt_radin/image_viewing.htm for a bilingual explanation with pictures, even. (Search for "windowing" and "Fensterung" on each page.)

agree  Armin Prediger

agree  Ken Cox: A common engineering term, and in this case most likely the right translation. The Breite is the size (width) of the window, and the Mitte is the centre of the window relative to a larger (maximum possible) range.

fenestration


Explanation:
Seems more to limit the term to "windows," sozusagen, i.e. all things window.

I meant to say "all things related to windows." As you can see from the referenced website, it seems to define itself in terms of width and breadth (die Parameter "Mitte" und "Breite").

'Windowing' is clearly going to be the favourite here: 'Fensterung' even sounds like it has been translated from English. The bilingual website quoted above (produkt_radin) is, however, from a firm based in Fürth, Germany. They too must have employed a translator...
The answer 'luminance adjustment' is based on the definition you provided.
