Johnson's rule is specifically designed to minimize makespan in a two-stage, unidirectional process. It consists of identifying the most time-consuming task and scheduling it first, and then scheduling the other tasks in the order that minimizes the idle time between the two stages. Therefore, E is the best choice for this scenario.
