  We analyze the clustering properties of ultraviolet selected galaxies by
using GALEX-SDSS data at z<0.6 and CFHTLS deep u' imaging at z=1. These
datasets provide a unique basis at z< 1 which can be directly compared with
high redshift samples built with similar selection criteria. We discuss the
dependence of the correlation function parameters (r0, delta) on the
ultraviolet luminosity as well as the linear bias evolution. We find that the
bias parameter shows a gradual decline from high (b > 2) to low redshift (b ~
0.79^{+0.1}_{-0.08}). When accounting for the fraction of the star formation
activity enclosed in the different samples, our results suggest that the bulk
of star formation migrated from high mass dark matter halos at z>2 (10^12 <
M_min < 10^13 M_sun, located in high density regions), to less massive halos at
low redshift (M_min < 10^12 M_sun, located in low density regions). This result
extends the ``downsizing'' picture (shift of the star formation activity from
high stellar mass systems at high z to low stellar mass at low z) to the dark
matter distribution.
