ir = Information Repository
res = Resource
The Information Repository is used to store data needed by OpenERP to know how to work as an application - to define menus, windows, views, wizards, database tables, etc.
These are two kinds of data that are stored in Odoo.
A resource matches something in the 'real world' that you store in Odoo - to represent information about partners, or products or accounting transactions.
