Robert,

Synergy, synergism and synergistic as terms applyed to a more artisitic 
form than a scientific one.  Synergistic refers to a manner of working, 
or in this case, tuning or balancing a system so that all of the 
component parts are performing as one.  No part predominates or rules the 
system to such an extent that all other parts must be subordinate to it. 
 It is a balancing act in which all parts are in harmony.  It is 
traditionally done on the fly by experienced and adroit hands.

  Computational results are the limit of science, synergy is the limit of 
man's ability to interceed after the equations are cranked and delicately 
adjust a system to work its best in real world situations through the 
integration of acquired knowledge and art or craft.

Synergy is not codified or codifiable or it would just be science. It is 
an artistic skill and is recognized only through repititious itterations 
with real world situations.  It is one of the defining characters of 
man's abilities in his interactions with the natural world and its 
phenomena.

Oddly, it is probably it is one of the important concepts to keep in mind 
during any scientific investigations of nature.
