How can i better this game-loop without using thread.sleep(); ? [CHANGED TOPIC]

Newbie & Debugging Questions

I just changed the topic and I got replies that the thread.sleep() method is bad practice how can I better this game loop for smoother running on multiple computers?

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
import java.awt.event.*;

import javax.swing.JPanel;




public class Panel extends JPanel 
	implements Runnable, KeyListener{
	
	// dimensions
	public static final int WIDTH = 320;
	public static final int HEIGHT = 240;
	public static final int SCALE = 2;
	
	// game thread
	private Thread thread;
	private boolean running;
	
	// image
	private BufferedImage image;
	private Graphics2D g;
	
	public Panel() {
		super();
		setPreferredSize(
			new Dimension(WIDTH * SCALE, HEIGHT * SCALE));
		setFocusable(true);
		requestFocus();
	}
	
	public void addNotify() {
		super.addNotify();
		if(thread == null) {
			thread = new Thread(this);
			addKeyListener(this);
			thread.start();
		}
	}
	
	private void init() {
		
		image = new BufferedImage(
					WIDTH, HEIGHT,
					BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB
				);
		g = (Graphics2D) image.getGraphics();
		
		running = true;
	
	}
	
	public void run() {
		
		init();
		
		// game loop
		while(running) {
			
			update();
			draw();
			drawToScreen();
			
			
			try {
				Thread.sleep(10);
			}
			catch(Exception e) {
				e.printStackTrace();
			}
			
		}
		
	}
	
	private void update() {
	}
	private void draw() {
	}
	private void drawToScreen() {
		Graphics g2 = getGraphics();
		g2.drawImage(image, 0, 0,
				WIDTH * SCALE, HEIGHT * SCALE,null);
		
		g.drawString("2014 Jay H.", 10, 230);
		g2.dispose();
	}
	
	public void keyTyped(KeyEvent key) {}
	
	// PUBLIC KEYRELEASES
	public void keyPressed(KeyEvent key) {
		
	}
	// PUBLIC KEYRELEASES
	public void keyReleased(KeyEvent key) {

	}

}
