Corrective control theory lays a novel foundation for the fault-tolerant control of asynchronous sequential machines. In this paper, we present a corrective control scheme for tolerating permanent state transition faults in the dynamics of asynchronous sequential machines. By a fault occurrence, the asynchronous machine may be stuck at a faulty state, not responding to the extal input. We analyze the detectability of the considered faults and present the necessary and su?cient condition for the existence of a controller that overcomes any permanent transition faults. Fault tolerance is realized by using potential reachability and asynchronous mechanisms in the machine. A case study on an asynchronous counter is provided to illustrate the proposed fault detection and tolerance scheme.
