A method and apparatus for logically representing and performing an analysis on a home network is disclosed. The method comprising the steps of representing selected ones of a plurality of components and the relationship among the components associated with the home network, providing a mapping between a plurality of events and a plurality of observable events occurring among the components, wherein the mapping is represented as a value associating each event with each observable event, and performing a system analysis based on the mapping of events and observable events. In another aspect of the invention, the home network is included in a larger system logically represented as a plurality of domains, wherein at least one of the plurality of components in the network is associated with at least two of the domains.
