In this paper we study the Stone-Čech bicompactification () of the bispace (X, P, Q). We show that the ring of all continuous real-valued functions on () may be identified with the uniform closure of a suitable subring of C(). Using this result, we give a characterization of the Wallman-Sanin compactifications of the pairwise Tychonoff bitopological spaces.
