Researches on Internetware have gained daily expanding attentions and interests. Internetware intends to be a framework of Web-based software development. A key issue in this framework is how these Internetware entities aggregate to form a coalition to fulfill the newly occurred requirements. This paper assumes that the Internetware entities distributed in Internet are autonomous and builds a mechanism for the aggregation of autonomous Internetware entities driven by requirements. A function ontology has been constructed for allowing the requirements to be understandable by these Interenetware entities so that these entities can recognize the requirements and realize that they are able to contribute for the realization of the requirements. After that, the requester and the contributors will negotiate to form an effective coalition.
