Keywords:
biframe compactification; strong inclusion
Summary:
Compactifications of biframes are defined, and characterized internally by means of strong inclusions. The existing description of the compact, zero-dimensional coreflection of a biframe is used to characterize {\sl all\/} zero-dimensional compactifications, and a criterion identifying them by their strong inclusions is given. In contrast to the above, two sufficient conditions and several examples show that the existence of smallest biframe compactifications differs significantly from the corresponding frame question.
