interleave
Insert between pages
To interleave is to insert pages, layers, or elements between others in alternating sequence.
Blank pages interleaved in a book protect illustrations; tissue interleaves separate photographic prints.
In computing, interleaving arranges data in non-contiguous patterns to improve performance: The system interleaves memory access across multiple banks.
More generally, to interleave activities is to alternate between them: She interleaved work calls with childcare throughout the day.
