 ## [Unreleased]
 
+- **Incremental/Delta Processing Feature** (PR #349 by @ZohaibHassan16, reviewed and fixed by @KaifAhmad1):
+  - Native delta computation between graph snapshots using SPARQL queries
+  - Delta-aware pipeline execution with `delta_mode` configuration for processing only changed data
+  - Version snapshot management with graph URI tracking and metadata storage
+  - Snapshot retention policies with automatic cleanup via `prune_versions()` method
+  - Integration with pipeline execution engine for incremental workflows
+  - Significant performance improvements: processes only changes instead of full datasets
+  - Cost optimization: dramatically reduces compute and storage requirements for large-scale operations
+  - Production-ready for near real-time pipelines and frequent deployment scenarios
+  - Bug fixes: corrected SPARQL variable order, fixed class references, resolved duplicate dictionary keys
+  - Comprehensive test coverage including delta mode integration tests
+  - Complete documentation with usage examples and API references
+  - Essential for enterprise-grade, large-scale semantic infrastructure
 - **Deduplication v2 Migration Guide** (PR #344 by @ZohaibHassan16, fixes by @KaifAhmad1):
   - Added comprehensive MIGRATION_V2.md documentation for Deduplication v2 Epic #333
   - Documented Candidate Generation V2 with multi-key blocking and phonetic matching

+## Incremental / Delta processing
+
+For large-scale knowledge graphs, reprocessing the entire dataset on every update is computationally expensive.
+Semantica supports **Delta-Aware Pipelines**, allowing you to compute the exact differences (added and removed triples)
+between the two graph snapshots and run validation, enrichment, or export jobs *only* on the changes.
+
+### Delta Pipeline Example
+
+```python
+from semantica.change_management import TemporalVersionManager
+from semantica.pipeline import PipelineBuilder, ExecutionEngine
+
+# a. Initialize your managers
+version_manager = TemporalVersionManager(store_graph="kg_version.db")
+triplet_store = get_my_triplet_store()
+
+# b. Build a delta-aware pipeline
+builder = PipelineBuilder()
+builder.add_step(
+    step_name="validate_changes",
+    step_type="validation",
+    handler=my_validation_handler,
+    delta_mode=True, # Enables incremental processing
+    base_version_id="v1.0",
+    target_version_id="v1.1",
+)
+
+pipeline = builder.build("incremental_nightly_job")
+
+# c. Execute the pipeline
+engine = ExecutionEngine()
+
+# The engine dynamically intercepts the flow, computes the delta on the
+# database backend, and passes ONLY the changed triples to the handler.
+result = engine.execute_pipeline(
+    pipeline,
+    data={}, # Is ignored in delta mode
+    version_manager=version_manager,
+    triplet_store=triplet_store

 ## Best Practices
 
 1.  **Idempotency**: Ensure steps are idempotent (can be run multiple times without side effects) to support retries.
