Abstract: Let (X,d) be a metric space and min X. Suppose that phi:X imes X omathbold{R} is a nonnegative symmetric function. We define a metric d^{phi,m} on X which is equivalent to d. If d^{phi,m} is totally bounded, its completion is a compactification of (X,d). As examples, we construct two compactifications of (mathhbold{R}^s,d_E), where d_E is the Euclidean metric and sgeq 2.
