The main approach to map the Internet is to collect information from a set of sources by using traceroute-like probes. In a typical mapping project, active measurement sources are relatively scarce while traceroute destinations are plentiful, which makes the sampled graphs quite different from the original ones. So, in the case that the number of sources is fixed, it becomes very important to determine how to place these sources such that the sampled graphs can be closer to the original ones. In this paper, we investigate the relationship between the placement of traceroute sources and their sampled result. Based on the relationship, we propose a method on how to place the traceroute sources. We show that the graph sampled from sources selected using our method is more accurate than the ones randomly selected. We also
