Abstract
We construct the Nachbin ordered compactification and the ordered realcompactification, a notion defined in the paper, of a given ordered topological space as nonstandard ordered hulls. The maximal ideals in the algebras of the differences of monotone continuous functions are completely described. We give also a characterization of the class of completely regular ordered spaces which are closed subspaces of products of copies of the ordered real line, answering a question of T.H. Choe and Y.H. Hong. The methods used are topological (standard) and nonstandard.
