Hello,

SRS = CRS.
A spatial reference system (SRS) or coordinate reference system (CRS) is
a coordinate-based local, regional or global system used to locate
geographical entities. A spatial reference system defines a specific map
projection, as well as transformations between different spatial
reference systems.
+information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_reference_system

EPSG (European Petroleum Survey Group) is a database of CRS codes.

Best,
Alvaro
