Designing JFrame Application in better way

Question

I am going to start the design of a Kiosk Based Application which consists of nearly dozens of screen and the application must be full screen and undecorated. In this situation what will be the best GUI design strategy?
1) I have designed 3-4 screens using MVC style which uses JFrame. But while moving from one JFrame screen to another it flickers and shows the background and the switching is slow.
2) Can I use JPanel in each screen design (this JPanel will have GUI for one screen) and set them visible as per the condition on single JFrame. Will this technique will be efficient or can I face any problem in future due to design of GUI only on one JFrame.

Answer 1

This is the demonstration code on which I am working.
In this application while moving from second to third screen flickering occurs while in other case the transition is smoother the problem is between second and third frame. How to avoid this, any tick? or by adding sleep?
