Abstract:  study the topological properties of attractors of Iterated Function Systems (I.F.S.) on the real line, consisting of affine maps of homogeneous contraction ratio. These maps define what we call a second generation I.F.S.: they are uncountably many and the set of their fixed points is a Cantor set. We prove that when this latter either is the attractor of a finite, non-singular, hyperbolic, I.F.S. (of first generation), or it possesses a particular dissection property, the attractor of the second generation I.F.S. consists of finitely many closed intervals.
