The present invention includes a method and apparatus for decomposing and verifying configurable hardware. In one embodiment, the method includes automatically decomposing a set of one or more units at a first level of a configurable hardware system design hierarchy into a set of two or more units of a lower level of the hardware system design hierarchy. The set of one or more units at a first level includes one or more units dynamically instantiated at design creation time as well as at least a first unit composed of a previously instantiated hardware system composed with two or more levels of units within the hardware system design hierarchy of the previously instantiated hardware system.
