Let $s$ be the space of rapidly decreasing sequences. We give the spectral representation of normal elements in the Fréchet algebra $L(s',s)$ of so-called smooth operators. We also characterize closed commutative ${}^*$-subalgebras of $L(s',s)$ and establish a Hölder continuous functional calculus in this algebra. The key tool is the property (DN) of $s$.
