This paper is motivated by work in two fields, the theory of strict topologies and topological measure theory. In [1], R. C. Buck began the study of the strict topology for the algebra C*(S) of continuous, bounded real-valued functions on a locally compact Hausdorff space S and showed that the topological vector space C*(S) with the strict topology has many of the same topological vector space properties as C0(S), the sup norm algebra of continuous realvalued functions vanishing at infinity. Buck showed that as a class, the algebras C*(S) for S locally compact and C*(X), for X compact, were very much alike. Many papers on the strict topology for C*(S), where S is locally compact, followed Buck's; e.g., see [2; 3].
