“Marc and I did an experiment that involved solving differential equations 
(first principles) offline and storing the results in very large tables.  In 
real time the walking machine fits curves (not first principles) to the tables 
to determine how to move a joint to achieve balance.

Is that an example of a synthesis?”

I’d call that a space/speed tradeoff, a computational trick to work within 
resource constraints.
