Morphology

maximation = maximize (transparent) = maximize + ation

The noun appears to be a nominalization of the verb 'maximize' with '-ation', so the meaning is directly the act or process of maximizing.

Etymology

Maximation comes from the root maxim-, which means 'greatest' and is the same root you see in maximum and maximize. So maximation is the act of making something as high as possible or raising it to its highest point.
