Abstract
The management and proper use of the Urban Public Transport Systems (UPTS) constitute a field as critical as little investigated according to its relevance and urgent idiosyncrasy within smart cities realm. In this paper, a newfangled approach by using the Natural Computing paradigm and Collective Computation is shown, more concretely taking advantage of an Ant Colony Optimization algorithm variation in order to build a system that makes the complete control of the UPTS a tangible reality.
