The paper summarizes research findings related to SmartResource project (2004-2007) funded by Tekes and industrial companies. The main objectives was research and development of the large-scale distributed environment for integration of smart devices, web services and humans based on combination of Semantic Web, agent technologies and serviceoriented architecture. A prototype platform for self-maintained smart resources in smart spaces has been designed and implemented for particular tasks of industrial partners. In this paper we will present the summary of research results obtained during the project period and related industrial case study. Several lessons have been learned during the project in addition to published results, which we are going to share with scientific community. We also present a vision how to utilize project results to design various complex smart spaces taking into account such issues as interoperability, coordination, self-manageability, reputation and trust in future generation smart space environments.
