Abstract:
The purpose of determinism is to ensure that semantically equivalent
data items are encoded into identical byte streams. CBOR (RFC 8949)
defines "Deterministically Encoded CBOR" in its Section 4.2, but
leaves some important choices up to the application developer. The
present document specifies dCBOR, a set of narrowing rules for CBOR
that can be used to help achieve interoperable deterministic encoding
for a variety of applications desiring a narrow and clearly defined
set of choices.
