They mean the same as they do in XML.
SystemId is essentially the URI of a document (or more
generally, of an entity). The terminology comes from SGML which predates the web
and the concept of URI.
PublicId is a "public identifier", another SGML concept. It
was an attempt to create a universal system for allocating globally unique
names; it never really took off, but some document types do have public
identifiers and you can use catalogs to translate them to
URIs.
