The JSON Canonicalization Scheme concept in a nutshell:

• Serialization of primitive JSON data types using methods compatible with ECMAScript's JSON.stringify()
• Lexicographic sorting of JSON Object properties in a recursive process
• JSON Array data is also subject to canonicalization, but element order remains untouched
