Abstract. In this paper we study the MapReduce Class (MRC) defined by Karloff et al., which is a formal complexity-theoretic model of MapRe-duce. We show that constant-round MRC computations can decide reg-ular languages and simulate sublogarithmic space-bounded Turing ma-chines. In addition, we prove hierarchy theorems for MRC under certain complexity-theoretic assumptions. These theorems show that sufficiently increasing the number of rounds or the amount of time per processor strictly increases the computational power of MRC. Our work lays the foundation for further analysis relating MapReduce to established com-plexity classes. Our results also hold for Valiant’s BSP model of parallel computation and the MPC model of Beame et al
