      \textit{J. E. Hutchinson} [Indiana Univ. Math. J. 30, 713-747 (1981; Zbl 0598.28011)] showed that the unique non-empty compact solution X of the equation \(K=F_ 1(X)\cup...\cup F_ n(X)\), where \(F_ 1,...,F_ n\) are contractions of \({\mathbb{R}}^ N\), can be considered as fixed point of a certain contraction on the complete metric space of compact subsets of \({\mathbb{R}}^ N\). The author considers the same problem from the viewpoint of Tarski's fixed point theorem for ordered spaces.
